I like how simple it is ... "How do you walk to work?" --> Walk --> Yes -- "Do you see many other people walking?" --> Yes --> "Yes, [you are an urbanite."
The problem with this graphic is it entirely excludes the tens of millions of us who are unemployed, students or retired. It would be more valuable if the starting point said something like: "How Do You Get From A to B?"
