This citation shows cancer rates in the US are 362.2 (4th) and in Turkey, 231.5 (49th).

So, you are not saying Turkey has higher cancer rates than the US? I'm confused.

It is the number of people with cancer per 100 thousand people. In other words, there are more people with cancer in the USA than in Turkey. The USA is the 4th country in the world with the highest number of people with cancer.
