Is Texas less segregated by race than other states? (Houston: living, legally)

Fascinating map. I wish you could view previous census year results.

I didn't realize Austin was still so divided by I-35.

In San Antonio, the city I know best, it's interesting to look at the clusters. Alamo Heights = mostly white, no surprise. Geometric blue patches in SE? Military bases. I'm surprised by the dense red (Asian) patches in NE. A lot of them seem to live really close together. I'll bet that's where the good Asian restaurants are. Need to go investigate. Dang, I could look at this all day.

Not under the age of 10. And even including older people, I highly doubt that. Unless you consider people from West Asia to be white. Like Arabs, Indians, and Jewish.

"White" is a race.

You named an ethnicity, a nationality, and a religion...

It doesn't matter, 99% of them are not European which is what white means. We don't call other people with dark skin black, it is only Africans. White means European. The only one you could possibly make a case for is Jews and a few Middle Easterners but the vast majority of them do not look like other Europeans. The point is, white people are not the majority, and if they are, they won't be in 5 years.

Well non Hispanic whites are the majority in 40+ states. Unless you live in a metropolitan area of a coastal state, your America looks pretty white.

3 out of 15 of the largest cities are majority non white as of 4 years ago.

Congrats, you've helped displaced the country's founding population and you think it's a funny thing to joke about. I hope it happens in non white countries some day too.
