Interesting data on New York's demographics. Throughout its history, New York has changed with the times and welcomed new immigrants. The changes move out in waves to the suburbs.

Whites already are in Chicago, they're 3rd.
- 'Hispanics'
- Blacks

What about with all the suburbs, though? That's what's new.
I'm sure there is a much larger population of blacks than Hispanics in Chicago. There are three black congressmen and only one Latino.

Almost makes you long for the days when there was a wall on Wall St, and pirates roamed the streets between ale-houses. ;)

***What about with all the suburbs, though? That's what's new.*** The inner burbs (adjoining Chi) are changing to black and Hispanic. the 'outer burbs' are mostly white.
****I'm sure there is a much larger population of blacks than Hispanics in Chicago.****
Nope. There was an article in one of the Chi papers a few days ago. Hispanics are #1, then blacks.
- Blacks have pretty much stayed in their old neighborhoods, but the
hisapnics Mexicans have litterly invaded most of the once middle class white neighborhoods. Especially on the SW side of the city. And most of those are illegals. - Its so bad in some areas that illegals; are ALLOWED to vote for the local school councils as there aren't enough U.S. Citizens.
And I'm series.

Why are Hispanics (folks with at least part Spanish ancestry) not counted as White?

Non-hispanic white people are already a distinct minority riding the NYC Subways, based on my not so scientific observations.

No news here. Whites have been a minority in the city since the early 1980s. The increased cost of housing in the city is sending many immigrants and "people of color" into the suburbs and exurbs, which is why places like Middletown and Goshen in exurban Orange County have rapidly growing black and hispanic populations. You also have many affluent East and South Asians moving to Westchester and Nassau County.
The major trend is the fact that the NY area is increasingly inhabited by affluent whites, and immigrants of various economic levels. The folks that are leaving tend to be blue collar and low-level white collar whites, who simply can't afford to live in the tri-state area, and don't want to live two families to a house.
In terms of real estate values, NY will remain, like California, out of the reach of many people. As a result, the only folks who can live there will be those who have "made it" and those strivers (largely immigrants) who don't mind living several families to a small house.

In the Chicago suburbs, Latinos now outnumber blacks.

Yeah, those Arabs have REALLY ruined the place. Thanks to the A-rabs, tiny houses now go for $600,000, out of reach for the white trash (the ones that tawk like dis) that used to live there. ;-)

Why are Hispanics (folks with at least part Spanish ancestry) not counted as White? Because many "Hispanics" in this country are really pure-blood Mexican Indians.
To: ohioman; Brilliant
Most hispanics in NYC area are mulatto (Puerto Ricans and Dominicans) or Mestizo (Ecuadorans and Mexicans). Very few are white.
The only metro area I know of with a large "white hispanic" population is Miami.

They used to be counted as white when crimes were reported. I don't know if they still are. Skewed the data quite a bit.

Not entirely true. The North Shore suburbs ("inner suburbia") are as affluent and exclusive as ever. Same with Naperville and the older western suburbs not immediately adjoining Chicago. The "white trash" areas like Marquette Park and Cicero changed at least 20 years ago, if not more.
