Total and Urban Population, by States and Territories: 1890

This stacked bar graph was created by Henry Gannett using data from the 1890 census. The source can be found in the Statistical atlas of the United States, based upon the results of the eleventh census. The graph depicts the urban population distribution throughout the 50 states with a solid bar. The unshaded bar represents the entire population of the specified state.
