Notes: The population of color is defined as individuals that identify as a race other than white, as multiracial, or as Hispanic or Latino (i.e. the population of color is the total population minus the non-Hispanic white population). All mentions of “white” refer to the non-Hispanic white population. For all other races, individuals may be of Hispanic origin while Hispanic individuals may be of any race. For these reasons, percentages may not total to 100%. The “Multiracial/Other” category includes multiracial persons and those who identify as American Indian/Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, or some other race. All single-year references denote the end year in the ACS five-year survey period. All mentions of growth refer to a group’s portion of the total population and are reported in percentage points.
