Introduction

The Hispanic population is a significant and vibrant part of the cultural tapestry of the United States. Currently, the United States is home to more than 60 million Hispanics, comprising nearly 18% of the total population. As both a product of immigration and of births within the U.S., the Hispanic community contributes to an increasingly diverse population, setting the nation apart with its rich traditions, language, and history. Hispanics trace their roots to countries in Latin America or to Spain, and they may or may not be native Spanish speakers. It is essential to note that Hispanic or Latino identity transcends geographical origins and focuses on cultural affiliation. Despite the slowed growth over the past decade, the Hispanic population is still a significant contributor to overall population growth, accounting for 52% of all U.S. population growth between 2010 and 2020.

  • Florida and New York rank third and fourth, with Hispanic populations of 5.47 million and 3.72 million, respectively. However, while Hispanics represent approximately 26% of Florida's total population, they form approximately 19% of New York's population.
