U.S. Population Growth Counterpoint
Since 1960 to 2050 the U.S. Population Growth is expected to go from 179 to 438 million. I have always considered it to be around 200 million until recently I saw it was 306 million. Where did the 100 million come from? And now I find out by the year 2050 there will be another 150 million. As of 2008, the U.S. comprises 4.5% of the World’s population.
The U.S. population distribution by race in 2006, of 299 million, as:
White-66% or 198.1 million
Hispanic-14.3% or 44.3 million
Black-13.4% or 40.9 million
Asian-4.4% or 13.1 million
American Indian or Alaskan native-.68% or 2 million
Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander-.14% or .43 million
The expected U.S. population by race in 2050, of 438 million, as:
White-47% or 206 million
Hispanic- 29% or 127 million
Black-13% or 57 million
Asian-9% or 39 million
What does this all mean, and how is the U.S. changing?
