- A greater percentage of the Hispanic population relocated than that of the overall US population
- Relative to the overall US population, more Hispanics relocated because of work than because of college
- There are now ten states in which Hispanics make up more than eleven percent of the state’s population
- The number of Hispanics is growing in both metropolitan areas and specially in small cities
Recent Mobility Trends by Hispanics in the US
The renowned flexibility of the American labor force has been illustrated most recently by the vigorous relocation activity of the Hispanic population within the US. Recent analyses of the 2005 Census confirm important and ongoing demographic shifts. Hispanics for example, traditionally concentrated in a few states such as Texas, California and New York, now have a significant and growing presence in other areas of the country. As importantly, there is a slow trend to move away from large metro areas where Hispanics have traditionally lived.
Today, in all states at least 0.7% of the population speaks Spanish at home (see map in last page). In at least 23 states the Spanish-speaking population makes up between 5% to 10% of the state’s population. Moreover, there are ten states where the Spanish-speaking population exceeds 11%. Leading this list is New Mexico (29.2%), followed by Texas (27.7), California (27.6), Arizona (19.8), Nevada (18.7), Florida (17.9), New York (13.5), New Jersey (13.3), Illinois (11.9), and Colorado (11.7).
