The Clock is Ticking.
The non-Hispanic White alone population is currently the “majority”
group, as it is both the largest racial and ethnic group and
accounts for greater than a 50 percent share of the nation’s total
population. However, by 2060, the share of this group is projected to be just 44 percent, as its population falls from 198 million in 2014 to 182 million in 2060.
The point at which the nonHispanic White alone population will comprise less than 50 percent of the nation’s total population has been described as the point at which we become a “majority minority” nation. According to these projections, the majority minority crossover will occur in 2044.
The Hispanic population is projected to be the third fastest growing. The Hispanic population is projected to increase from 55 million in 2014 to 119 million in 2060, an increase of 115 percent. In 2014, Hispanics are projected to account for 17 percent of the U.S. population. By 2060, 29 percent of the United States is projected to be Hispanic—more than one-quarter of the total population.
