Providence, RI is a large city and the demographics are only about 35% white. The metro is whiter; however, because Fall River and New Bedford, cities in MA but part of the Providence metro, are majority Portuguese cities, so have large white populations.

Besides among the lowest city proper (17% ?) must be lowest for its metro (19%). Including any white ancestry, it's much higher; 37%.

Latino/ hispanic or whatever you call it is not a race and are shoved under white most times.

San Antonio is NOT 28% white according to the census.
The majority of the "White Hispanics" in San Antonio look like George Zimmerman, so they are not truly White like the Gringos.

The majority of the "White Hispanics" in San Antonio do not look like Jake Gyllenhaal. Basically what I am saying is that the majority of "White Hispanics" in San Antonio are actually Mestizos.

Do you guys know any other city (with 200.000+ people) with a conspicuously low proportion of white people?

Thanks in advance

Let's see....

Los Angeles
Detroit

Atlanta!

54% Black

Atlanta is, as of 2010, the nation's 4th largest black-majority city and has long been known as a "black mecca" for its role as a center of black wealth, political and social power, education, and culture including film and music.[20]
The city of Atlanta is seeing a large demographic increase in its white population, and at a pace that outstrips the rest of the nation. The proportion of whites in the city's population grew faster between 2000 and 2006 than that of any other U.S. city.[21] By 2010, Atlanta's white population had increased by 22,763 people. The white percentage increased from 31% in 2000, to 35% in 2006, to 38% in 2010, more than double the increase between 1990 and 2000. During the same time, the city's black population decreased by 31,678 people, shrinking from 61.4% of the city's population in 2000 to 54.0% in 2010. The demographic changes are due to an influx of whites into gentrifying intown neighborhoods, such as East Atlanta and the Old Fourth Ward, coupled with a movement of blacks into adjacent suburbs, such as Clayton County.[22][23][23] Note that this phenomenon is not unique to Atlanta, as Washington, D.C. is undergoing a similar demographic change.
The city of Atlanta has recently become relatively more diverse. The city long consisted overwhelmingly of blacks and non-Hispanic whites; those groups made up 92.1% of the city in 1990, but by 2010 their proportion had shrunk to 85.0%. Atlanta's Hispanic population increased by 72.0% from 2000 to 2010, and in 2010 the city was 10.2% Hispanic. The Asian American population increased by 65.5%, and in 2010 Asian Americans made up 5.1% of the city.
The trend towards ethnic diversity is much stronger in Metro Atlanta as a whole in which blacks and non-Hispanic whites make up only 83.1% of the population. The metro area's Hispanic population more than doubled from 268,851 in 2000 to 547,400 in 2010, and now makes up over 10% of the region's population.[24] These immigrant communities have altered the economic, cultural, and religious landscape of metro Atlanta.[25] The Asian American population in the metro nearly doubled and makes up just under 5% of the region's population. Gwinnett County became one of the most diverse counties in the nation.[26]

Race and ethnicity by neighborhood

See also: Table of Atlanta neighborhoods by population and Neighborhoods of Atlanta
2010 census figures for Atlanta's 25 neighborhood planning units reveal several key facts about Atlanta's neighborhoods:
  • 60% of the city's area consists of overwhelmingly black neighborhoods: together, Northwest, Southwest, and Southeast Atlanta are 92% black
  • there are some areas that are predominantly white, notably Buckhead and Northeast Atlanta (NPUs F and N) which are on average 80% white
  • most of the fastest growing areas are central: Downtown (25.9%), Midtown, West Midtown, close-in east side neighborhoods (NPU N) (18.4%)
  • the Ben Hill area at the southwest Perimeter is also growing quickly (up 5,452 people, 45.8%)
  • population loss in areas of Northwest Atlanta (avg. -24.1%) and Southeast Atlanta (-20.5%), as well as some parts of Southwest Atlanta

Note: racial and ethnic groups are listed in the order established by the national census, not by their ranking within Atlanta

Most stupid thread on the internet!

Detroit and Baltimore are not going to give you the Shanghai "culture". More like Mogadishu "culture". Either you were born yesterday or trolling.
