Melting Pot Suburbs: A Census 2000 Study of Suburban Diversity

Abstract

■Minorities were responsible for the bulk of suburban population gains in a majority of the metro areas studied. Minority population gains were most pronounced in the 35 diverse melting pot metros, and in areas in the South where black and Hispanic populations increased. Many of the melting pot metros had drops in the white suburban population in the 1990s. ■Asians are more likely to live in major metropolitan suburbs than in cities. Almost half of Hispanics and 39 percent of blacks in the metropolitan areas surveyed live in the suburbs.
