To clarify, in this case, "compared with 20 percent in 2000" modifies the main noun of the phrase "35 percent of the population " - "35 percent"; if the noun immediately before the comma is part of a prepositional phrase, the modifier acts on the noun that the prepositional phrase modifies.
We hope this
