US’s white population declines for first time ever, 2020 census finds
It was the first time that the non-Hispanic white population has fallen below 60% since the census began. Non-hispanic whites now account for around 58% of America’s population, a drop from 2010 when they made up 63.7% of the population. Meanwhile, there was significant growth among minority groups over the last decade. The Hispanic or Latino population grew by 23%, while the Asian alone population surged by over 35%. The Black population also increased by more than 5.6%.
