The nation becomes more diverse, and redistricting gets real.
The U.S. Census Bureau releases more detailed population data that will be used to draw new congressional district maps for the coming decade.The U.S. experienced its most sluggish growth since the Great Depression — 7.4% over the last decade. Much of the growth was fueled by people who are Latino, Asian and biracial or multiracial.
The Asian population grew by 36%, and the number of Latinos grew 23%. The nation is increasingly looking like California. Latinos are the second largest group after white people, making up nearly 19% of the population. Among the most intriguing findings was the 276% growth among people who identify as belonging to two or more races, up to nearly 34 million people in 2020.
The census reported that Latinos are the largest ethnic group in California, accounting for nearly 4 in 10 residents. California demographers reported several years ago thatMuch of the increase in all racial groups was driven by the growing number of people who report belonging to multiple races. For example, the number of Latinos who say they belong to more than one racial group increased by nearly 600%, while the number of Latinos who solely identified as being white decreased by nearly 50%.
More people are multiracial, but the increase could also be attributed in part to changing social norms about how people report their backgrounds.
