An Older and More Diverse Nation by Mid-Century
The nation will be more racially and ethnically diverse, as well as much older, by mid-century, according to projections released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.
Minorities, now roughly one-third of the U.S. population, are expected to become the majority in 2042, with the nation projected to be 54 percent minority in 2050. By 2023, minorities will comprise more than half of all children.
