Yea, and also in comparison to Hudson County in New Jersey and Brooklyn. However, that's all highly localized and even in the context of the counties of the Tri-State Area, the Bronx is pretty diverse. Against the rest of the US and the world, the Bronx is extremely diverse on this sort of county level.

And no, that's not a judgment call on whether diverse is inherently good and bad in case someone wants to run on that tangent.

Kingsbridge around the 1 train station looks pretty diverse

NYC has everything those cities have PLUS lots of people from Latin America, which makes up a huge chunk of the world.

NYC has a lot of everybody somewhat. So this is kind of an overstatement.

The predominance of Dominicans in the west Bronx gets cancelled out by the predominance of Puerto Ricans in the southern Bronx.
Most haven isn't all that Puerto Rican these days. I hear more bachata, and merengue than I do salsa, or even hip hop these days.

But what does Toronto and London have that NYC doesn't?

My point is that every ethnic group represented in Toronto and London is represented in NYC, plus NYC has many Latinos which Toronto and London do not.

I have to imagine they're still the largest Hispanic group there

Puerto Rican>Dominican>Mexican is probably how it goes

Its the old that are dying out. Middle age types moving to Florida, young ones finish college and move out, than poor types looking move to PA. I remember a couple of years back watching Bronx net. They said by the end of this decade. Bronx hispanic population will be Dominican dominated, and that will hit Bronx politicians hard which are mostly Puerto Rican based.
