The growth in the American population over the last decade was driven entirely by minority communities, according to new data released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau, as the number of white Americans declined for the first time since the nation's founding.
Non-Hispanic whites make up just under 58 percent of the American population, the first time since the Census was first conducted that they have fallen under the 60 percent mark. By contrast, the 2000 Census showed non-Hispanic whites made up just over 69 percent of the population, and 63.7 percent in 2010.
Hispanic or Latino Americans have grown steadily to 62.1 million, or 18.7 percent of the population, up from 12.6 percent in 2000 and 16.4 percent in the 2010 count. Asian Americans grew faster than any other minority group in the last decade, to 24 million, up about 20 percent since 2010.
Counties with populations under 50,000 all lost population on average, according to the Census data. Counties with populations over 100,000 gained 9.1 percent, as more Americans flocked to metropolitan areas and their nearby suburbs.
Overall, 86.3 percent of Americans live in a metropolitan area, a city and its surroundings with populations greater than 50,000, up 2 percentage points since the 2000 survey. The share of Americans who live in rural areas that are not part of metropolitan areas dropped by 2.8 percentage points.

I travel on the job sometimes in so-called very white regions. The amounts of foreigners, non-whites is astounding. Oftentimes I’m the minority. Sometimes I get looks and I’m like ok, what did I do? A lot of them are pushy, dullards too. I’m like get the hell out of my America where you don’t belong.
We weren’t voting for a Republican, we voted for Trump. Trump won. Take your liberal, media driven blinders off already!
I’m 70, so I’ll likely not live to see the ultimate collapse of the United States as a constitutional republic.
Our country is being flooded with non-American “migrants” who have no loyalty or allegiance to this country whatsoever; indeed, they more likely than not hate the country.
We need candidates who can gain support from minority voters. Trump increased the share of black men voting Republican, though black women remain 96 plus percent for Democrats.
There have been a number of prominent minority Republicans, such as Tim Scott, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, who can help gain minority voter support.
I know many of you do not like these three examples I mention. I’m just using them as examples of prominent Republican minorities. We do not want the Republican party to be labeled as the party of older or white voters. If that happens the GOP will never win another presidential election .
You got a 60/40 or so whites voting Republican vs the quickly rising 75/25 voting democrat population. It’s inevitable and that’s been clear for 20+ years. I liked the poster that said the whole country is around late 90’s CA. Before too much longer and it’ll a complete 1-party state.
It’s a bitch, but we have to accept it.
Seems we still reign supreme:-)
Don’t forget the Asians, who currently vote Dem at a higher percentage than Latinos. Why do people conveniently forget the Asians?
So the GOP shall all become woke idiots to attract idiots? Riiiight....
Doesn’t matter now. The die is cast. The r’s and d’s sold out America years ago. Massive legal immigration combined with Reagan’s amnesty, and the other amnesties and lack of enforcement doomed the US. We are merely a large indian reservation at this point.
Scare tactics and personal threats are working for the leftists, especially now that conservatives and some forms of authority, like police officers, have been sufficiently neutered.
Stop it. If the GOP goes racial then we will have two race baiting parties. Ughhh.....
Predicted way back in the late 70s/early 80s. It never bothered me because at that time, I just looked at everyone as a fellow American and who cares the color as long as we are all on the same page (because at that time I thought if whites were to become a minority it would be through not having children while minorities were having them) I never considered that it would be a pre-planned ‘invasion’ that the United States government authored. And it’s the whites that planned it (initially).
Pretty soon I will qualify for all kinds of free stuff?
Compliments of all the rich Hispanics and blacks.
Wonder if it’s just coincidence crime of all categories is sky rocketing all across America, particularly where illegals/minorities congregate in leftist run inner cities.
The census bureau has two white categories: “ white alone” and “white alone, not-Hispanic or Latino.” In 2019 the white alone category was 76.3%.That includes Hispanics/Latinos who also checked white. The “white alone, not Hispanic/Latino” category was 60.1%.
I talked with the blacks. They said they’d support you politically but you need to debase yourself for their amusement and profess your wicked nature daily.
It would be interesting to see how they define White, Black, Hispanic and Asian. I have a multiracial family, with some mixed race kids. Is a child with one white parent, or one minority grandparent, white or minority?
We have known this for a long time. So has the left, which has been doing all it can to make it happen faster. They can’t wait for Nature, so they are trying to get rid of Whitey by other means.
