The statement that accurately describes inequality in the U.S. is:

The median rural income is less than the median urban income.

This reflects the general trend where urban areas often have higher median incomes compared to rural areas due to differences in job availability, industry presence, and cost of living. The other statements are either misleading or inaccurate.
