The latest U.S. Census Bureau estimates reveal a significant increase in the Hispanic population, which grew by 1.16 million to more than 65 million in the year ending July 1, 2023.

Texas saw the largest influx of Hispanic, Asian, and Black residents, with the Hispanic community making up 70.5% of the nation’s net population gain. The Asian American population in Texas increased by 5.5%, outpacing the state's overall growth.

The nation is also growing older as the massive Baby Boomer population ages. The White population decreased by 461,600, and Hispanics now represent 19.5% of the total U.S. population.
