Denver’s Latino growth is kid-driven
Tagged: children, Colorado, Denver, populationPosted on: August 10th, 2007“A large chunk of Denver’s burgeoning Latino population is in the youngest category – children 4 and younger.
A total of 21,780 Latinos are estimated to have moved to Denver or were born here from 2000 to 2006, and a third of them – 7,260 – are just 4 and younger, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
The increase among that age group was three times that in any other child- age category among Latinos, but the numbers released this week were not a surprise to those who track child population in the city.”
