San Diego's MSA is synonymous with San Diego County. The percentages are different from this census info: https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fa...rnia/PST045218

White - 45.2%
Hispanic - 34.0%

I thought the Hispanic population of KC metro would be a bit higher. Lots of Hispanic areas particularly on the Kansas side

[the resident09]

Washington DC MSA surpasses Chicago MSA in total black population making it 3rd now behind NY and Atlanta by MSA.

DC also surpassed the 1 million mark with Hispanic population, giving at least the White, Black, and Hispanic population being over 1 million each.

DC also by MSA has the 4th largest Asian population in the United States, with a chance to be 3rd by 2020. The Asian population now 10% of the metro, will also crack 1 million mark by 2030.

There are 8 metro areas in the country that hold at least 1 million residents in three of the four racial groups:

New York
Los Angeles
Chicago
Dallas
Houston
Washington DC
Miami
San Francisco/Oakland

[the resident09]

Boston is 70% white with almost 5 million people. Yowzers!

Yup, the MSA still has a long way to go. It’s definitely been improving, though.

It’s interesting no other metro besides NY hits the million mark with 4 out of 4, especially for LA though so many blacks have left LA I suppose it makes sense.
