2060 U.S. Census (2015, population, Hispanics)

The census just came out with there new projections. How accurate are these reports? Every single one that comes out seems to mention non-Hispanic whites losing their majority around 2043.

Census: Immigrant Population to Explode 85 Percent by 2060

well considering about 22.5% of the Hispanics in the USA are white
not very accurate

also immigration will decrease over time as nations become more advanced and developed, birth rates should also stabilize for all ethnic groups

so instead of the USA being 43.6% non Hispanic white by 2060, i would say about 47%

add the white Hispanics to that number and you have a USA which is about 56% white

Here are the new US Census projections:

2014: 318,700,000
2020: 334,500,000
2030: 359,400,000
2040: 380,200,000
2050: 398,300,000
2060: 416,800,000

not saying the projections are wrong, but it really is hard to determine these kinds of things. As latin america develops, immigration from those countries will slow down. Not to mention a war in Europe could break out at any second & would send millions of European immigrants stateside. But many studies have shown that by the time hispanics get around to third generation, they begin referring to themselves as white, & i don't think this study took that into account

[censusdata]

I see overall population growth being a lot slower than they predict. It's already down half from the 1990s. Fertility rates among all groups are tanking and immigration has also slowed. I think the race ratios are pretty accurate.

As I have said before, a nation of 420 million is just silly and ungovernable. I hope the US breaks apart before that.
