White People Replaced as Largest Demographic in Texas
There’s been a drastic and dramatic shift in the demographic makeup of the Lone Star State.
Now, it may not be a massive margin and it does involve some technicalities, but the numbers do speak for themselves: Hispanics outnumber non-Hispanic white people (a Hispanic person can be white, creating some technicalities) in Texas.
According to The Hill, this is the first time this has happened since the mid-19th century, according to the 2022 Census Bureau data these findings are based on.
The Dallas Morning News said the Hispanic demographic accounts for over 12 million Texans, while the non-Hispanic white population accounts for just 11.9 million Texans.
