When will Latinos outnumber whites in Texas? Experts have a new prediction
Jill Cowan, 06/21/2018

Texas got a little older and a little more diverse last year, data released Thursday from the U.S. Census Bureau shows.

Migration into the state, coupled with generally higher fertility among Latinos than in the non-Hispanic white population, has also driven an increase in the state’s Latino population, he said.

Texas added 234,000 Hispanic residents over the year, the most of any state, bringing the overall Hispanic population to roughly 11.2 million.

“We had projected that the Latino population would exceed the ... white population by 2020 and that’s probably not going to happen,” he said.

Based on the new trends, he said, he now expects Latinos to outnumber non-Hispanic white people in Texas by 2022.

Has little to do with birth/deaths of whites. It has more to do with politicians allowing a massive illegal invasion for decades, bloating the numbers of Hispanics in this country.

Any other line is a lie.

Liberals lie about celebrating diversity.

A community that shifts from 90% white to 90% Hispanic is equally monolithic. But liberals will say a 100% black or hispanic community is “diverse” and good, while a white community is lacking, bad.

Respectfully, you have the option of picking the one which gives you the most benefit. In my extended family, we have mixed Black/White, all Black, all White and mixed Asian /White. If you’re applying for college, stay away from the Asian part. Black always works. White, not so much.
