Houston without a doubt. Following that, I would say DFW then Atlanta.
Other than those four (Miami, Houston, DFW, and Atlanta) I dont think there are any others I would consider international. Orlando maybe if you consider tourists.
It depends on how broad you want your definition of South to be. If you consider the original Confederate states as your contextual "South" then the answer to this question has to be Fairfax County, VA. It has an metro "core" population of well over 1 million. Granted NOVA has lost a lot of it's Southernness over the years but if we are looking at pure demographics on diversity within traditionally Southern states...no city is even close to Fairfax. It has a large AA population, A very large Asian Minority, large hispanic minority, and a good mish-mosh of other races as well. On percentages alone it takes the cake as being the most mixed....Houston, DFW, Miami, and Atlanta all have a lower non-white population but the "diversity" is usually either just black or latino.

Houston. My brother is going to school there and there are more races and international students there than you can count with all the hands of the people that make up the STL metro area.
