Chicago does not have many Latinos who are not Mexican.

Por que mientes asi?


We have a Puerto Rican like you requested; and he acknowledged that there were plenty of PR's in Chicago...what else do you want?

You're also wrong, percentage-wise, according to the census...like I've siad before.

No, he didn't say that, and he is not an authority like the Census.

What do I want? Maybe you to stop lying and admit that Chicago's Latino population is Mexican, and not diverse like that of NYC.

No, you're lying, as you have throughout this thread, as I've confirmed many times.

I guess having 100,000+ members of an ethnic group (in this case, Puerto Rican) in your city limits does not mean sizeable numbers anymore....hahahaha. BTW, 2000 census numbers indicate that Puerto Ricans alone were 15% of Chicago city's latino population and 9% of the metro's latino population, so your 90% figure is way off...


Point of reference: about 300,000 Puerto Ricans live in the Bronx.

Bring me back census data that proves me wrong Osito!

I have throughout this thread, but you still keep claiming that Chicago's Latino population is diverse like NYC, Chicago's black population is diverse like NYC, etc.

No one believes you! Give it up!

You haven't. Not even once. I know you haven't looked at census data, because you throw out ridiculous and unfounded claims.



I have census data that proves everything I've said. Chicago's latino population is definitely not as diverse as New York's, not by a long shot. But you are going in the total opposite direction by throwing out these wild claims that you can't back up.

Where's your data?

First thing, your numbers are wildly exaggerated.

Second thing, the most recent ethnic Census-based data was 10 years ago, so anything you can find online is 10 years out of date.

Third thing, you are comparing the entire Puerto Rican population in Chicagoland (three or four states), and then compare it to 40 square miles in NYC (the Bronx) and Chicago STILL has a tiny fraction of the Puerto Rican population, yet you still make your absurd claim.

So you are claiming that four Midwestern states have a fraction of the Puerto Rican population of one small part of NYC.

And your argument is that Chicago has a large PR population, right? So large that it is a tiny fraction of one small part of NYC, even if you include four states close to Chicago?

Gee, yeah, same thing, right??

Look it up.

Actually, that was comparing just the city of Chicago to the Bronx, granted, the majority of Chicago's Puerto Rican population is located within the city itself

American Community Surveys are conducted on a more regular basis, so you can go and look (as I did) and find that your claims, as of 2006, are still false


And my numbers are not exaggerated at all...the 2000 total for the city of Chicago was 113,055.
