The US Census Bureau provides this excellent, interactive searchable database of international statistical information. The Census Bureau's IDB is highlighted by IDB Online Access, which allows the user to select one of 26 demographic, ethnic, and economic variables and any or "all [of] the countries in the world," and receive a table for that variable for the latest year, selected individual years, or a range of years. Selected variables are available by urban/rural residence. Data can be displayed as text, spreadsheet, or in user-configurable format. IDB is a product of the Census Bureau's International Programs Center.
