The U.S. is becoming less white.
The population of whites in the United States has fallen below 60% for the first time in the country’s history, the latest census results will reveal. The 2020 Census is due out Thursday.
Another finding shows a majority of people under 18 are non-white. The white population has dropped in 26 states. The decline in the white population, if confirmed on Thursday, has happened about eight years sooner than predicted, said Brookings Institute demographer William Frey, The Washington Post reported.
"Twenty years ago if you told people this was going to be the case, they wouldn’t have believed you," he said, adding that the decrease can be partly attributed to the opioid epidemic and lower-than-anticipated birthrates among millennials after the Great Recession. “The country is changing demographically.”
Frey said the white population could fall below 50% by 2045.
Hispanics and Asians, meanwhile, account for much of the country’s population growth, the New York Post reported. Blacks are expected to remain steady at 12.5% in the 2020 Census results.
The estimations are based on annual updates from the U.S. Census Bureau based on the 2010 data with exact figures for the 2020 Census expected Thursday.
Estimates from 2016 to 2020 show that all of the country’s population growth during that period came from increases in people of color.
The largest and most steady gains were among Hispanics, who have doubled their share over the past three decades to almost 20%. Hispanics are expected to drive about half the growth in population in more than a dozen states, including Texas, Florida, Arizona, New Mexico, and Nevada.
The Asian population could double from 3% to 6% in the 2020 Census.

No matter the numbers, we will NEVER be “minorities”.
BLM = Khmer Rouge
Next census will be quite different.
It’s just more people claim to be a minority if there is even a sliver of non-white in their ancestry. My in-law claimed to be Indian just because she was from Oklahoma. A DNA test didn’t agree.
Currently, registered voters are 70% white.
In 10 years it will be under 50%.
Generally, white women don’t like to have babies.
Such a dumb statistic. So any of my mixed relatives and grandchildren are minorities no matter the portion. Lol
Fact: “Hispanics” are white.
we’re turning into latin and south america. meheco will regain their land peacefully.
Great...
My white privilege card loses more value everyday...
Everyone I know who was once white is now mixed-race.
Got to stay out of the cattle cars and reserve a space at the trough.
If you watch any TV you may have noticed that straight, Caucasian male protagonists are as rare as honest politicians in WDC.
My very liberal BIL calls it NBN-TV - Nothing But Negroes TV. I dropped my beer the first time I heard him say that.
‘Hispanics are family oriented and religious, so there is hope.’
Muslims are very religious also...’nuff said about hope...
Last baby that my daughter had, it looked to me at the hospital (not one in the ‘hood either) that the huge majority of births were being funded my Medicaid.
Also not a surprise with an unconstitutional income tax.
I think race is one of those boxes I failed to check on my census form.
“Generally, white women don’t like to have babies”
They prefer dogs to babies.
