You just never say anything Positive about LA do you.
I'm just stating facts. in 2030 LA county will be 70% hispanic. tell me how exactly is that diverse? then, on top of that LA (along with almost every other city) is losing most of it's black population. in about 7 years it went from 12% to under 8% black. their all moving south. in 15 years LA has lost 123,000 blacks. so, I'll say it again; LA county probably won't even be the 80th most diverse county in 20 years. sad, but true.
lol I KNEW someone from Texas would come in here claiming their county is... Diverse with mexicans doesn't make it the most diverse in the country.
Prove to us that they are more diverse than Queens, instead of just stating your opinion.
......your joking right???
I'm not claiming it's the most diverse, but it's probably top 10-20.
