Data Show Minorities’ Movement To Majority in the Washington DC area

Tagged: ,

“In a region that began the decade with a largely white population, five of six new residents in the Washington area since 2000 have been people of color, according to data released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Racial and ethnic changes have been particularly vivid in outer suburbs such as Prince William County, where the number of Hispanics more than doubled between 2000 and 2005. Hispanics overtook blacks as that county’s largest minority group. In Frederick County, the Hispanic population doubled, and in Loudoun County, the Asian population quadrupled.”
