The U.S. Latino population, now about 1 in 5 Americans, is projected to continue increasing through the year 2060, when over 1 in 4 Americans are likely to be Latino, according to U.S. Census Bureau projections released Thursday.
Hispanics are now 19.1% of the U.S. population but are projected to make up 26.9% of the population in less than four decades. Meanwhile, the non-Hispanic white population is projected to continue to decline from 58.9% now to 44.9% by 2060.
Overall, the U.S. population is projected to continue to grow from 333 million today to a high of nearly 370 million in 2080, but then dip downward to 366 million in the year 2100.
I thought I was feeling more Latino these days. Good to finally hear some confirmation.
This must explain my insatiable lust for burritos and salsa.
I am learning Spanish on Duolingo so maybe in 40 years I’ll know enough to count as Latino too!
Explains why the maga fucks and the gop are freaking out about the border…
