Non-Hispanic whites are a dwindling share of the U.S. population, with their numbers dropping in the Northeast and Midwest and growing only modestly in the South and West, the Census Bureau said Thursday.
Whites declined in 15 states, almost all in the industrial and farming states from Massachusetts to Pennsylvania, and from Kansas to Ohio. They also declined in California and three Southern states, including Maryland.
A Census Bureau analysis of the 2010 count showed that the number of non-Hispanic whites rose over the decade from 194.5 million to 197 million, but the 1.2 percent growth rate fell far short of the national increase of 9.7 percent. Non-Hispanic whites are now 64 percent of the population, down from 69 percent a decade ago.
The census also reported that the black population grew by 12 percent. African Americans now make up almost 13 percent of the population, a small increase over the decade. More than half, 57 percent, live in the South, up from 55 percent a decade ago. And six out of 10 blacks live in 10 states, including Virginia and Maryland.
The census analysis of the nation’s white and black population underscores the transformative nature of growth in the 21st century. The number of Hispanics and Asians is soaring, the number of blacks is growing slowly and whites are almost at a standstill.

there are 2 schools within a half mile of my house. 10 years ago it was 90/10 white minority it is now 10/90
I didn’t read the whole thing. Did their numbers dwindle as a fraction of the population, or in absolute numbers ?
They use it to move the termites into the areas where people moved to escape the termites, forcing them to move again.
But now they can’t sell the house and must stay.
It’s happening in my area.
I know the solution and I know the candidate...
RICK PERRY for AMNESTY (to give those Dream Act graduates a job).
But now they can’t sell the house and must stay.

I got you beat. I’m in Hollywood, “very’ close by to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and nearby is Hollywood High School where most stars of the 50’s graduated.
It is now 100% hispanic/mexican. Never saw 1 white kid there for the past 5 years.
We may see a big uptick in Greek and Irish and Italian immigrants. Things look rotten over there.
I am seeing a sudden surge in ghetto population in previously middle class Phoenix neighborhoods. They are coming from as far away as Detroit and moving into foreclosed homes. At first I couldn’t explain it. Then I realized people from inner city neighborhoods from the east wouldn’t move cross country, and especially to a state like Arizona.. unless there were some forces/strong incentives behind it.
White flight to The South.......
Conquista de la raza!!!
I made a prediction a while ago that we may actually see more white immigrants over the next couple decades, esp. from S. Europe. Maybe some from places like Russia and Ukraine as well.
And, now you know WHY nothing will ever be done about illegal immigration. It’s all about replenishing the diminishing population #s and the tax base.
So, there are “white” Hispanics? What is the difference between “white” Hispanics and the “brown” Hispanics the commie ‘RATS are always talking about? Geez. I’m getting a headache.
Then you will see a reversal in the Democrat attitude towards immigration.
Overall non-hispanic white population increased by 1.2% in 10 years. Overall population growth was 9.7%. Relative declines in non-hispanic whites as a percentage of the total population are national and in every state. 15 states also witnessed absolute declines in numbers of non-hispanic whites.
