talk about white flight. amazing how few whites are left in the bx. prediction-in 10 yrs it'll be less then 5%. im gona be the last white boy standing, i aint goin nowhere. lol
and also equally amazing...how the dominicans have taken over the west bronx the last 10-15 yrs. u might as well call it santa domingo. lol
See that small little neighborhood under the park, to the east of Riverdale? I believe that's Van Cortlandt Village. Told you it still maintained a White majority and is increasingly so.
This also shows that no matter how many yuppies continue to move to Brooklyn, Blacks still dominate, like, half of it.
Additionally, unless I'm blind, Throgs Neck has a pocket of Asian residents in its most southern tip.
Also, what gives with the blue dots in parts of the south/central west Bronx? Where do White populations exist in those areas?

Van Courtlandt Village is okay right now but the larger area, Kingsbridge Heights, has been declining for years now. The population is also shifting, the Dominicans are ever increasing in that area. Creeping northward as the population grows.
As for the blue dots in Belmont, the Fordham University dorms and hold outs along the north end of Arthur Ave.
Actually, to me, there appear to be quite a few mixed areas, especially in Queens and Southern Brooklyn. However, White/Asian seems to be the dominant mix.
This map is fascinating. The wide dispersal of Asians in contrast to the relative segregation of black and latino populations is very obvious.
[note - it looks like this is based on the 2000 census - I'm sure there have been more changes since then]
It is fascinating. It is almost predictable in certain areas.... kinda like the "wrong side of the tracks" syndrome. You clearly make out certain streets like Broadway in the Bushwick area & Roosevelt Ave by looking at the colors rather than the street/subway line disecting it.
This is so interesting. It's funny how Staten Island is completely white.
I want to see an updated version as this is from 2000. New York's population has grown tremendously, more than any other region in the US, in just the past 7 years.
