"According to an analysis by Manuel Pastor, a University of California, Santa Cruz professor, the Highland Park area was 80 percent black and 20 percent Hispanic in 1980"

Gross and inaccurate generalization. Not one caucasian or asian was there in 1980? Precise 4 to 1 relative statistics of black to hispanic? Not likely!

They don’t count freeway traffic.

While I do take those figures as being approximations, I don't doubt that they're reasonably close ones.

Given the area, the combined number of Caucasian and Asian residents probably amounts to little more than a rounding error in statistical terms.
