The Hispanic population grew to 53 million in 2012, a 50% increase since 2000 and nearly six times the population in 1970, according to the most recent U.S. Census Bureau data. Meanwhile, the overall U.S. population increased by only 12% from 2000 to 2012. Hispanic population growth accounted for more than half of the country’s growth in this time period.

A Pew Research Center analysis last year found that the 10 largest counties by Hispanic population accounted for 22% of the national Hispanic population growth between 2000 and 2011. Half of these counties are located in California

Latinos become California's largest demographic though political clout lags

This month Latinos will make up 39% of most populous US state, but group still struggles to convert numbers into results
It is a demographic milestone signalling the changing face of America: this month, Latinos will overtake whites to become California’s largest racial/ethnic group.

They will officially make up 39% of the country’s most populous state, edging past the 38.8% who are white non-Hispanic, and dwarfing the Asian American and African American communities.

Demographic ascendance is producing a fast growing ethnic voting bloc nationwide. The Latino electorate, which cast ballots in record numbers in the 2012 presidential election, is expected to double within a generation. “An awakened giant”, declared the Pew Research Center.

It's nothing to worry about, its not like all of us generic Caucasian are going to disappear in thin air. I think overall we should be more worried about the economy falling apart and scarring off anyone who has any form of wealth rather than some minority spreading.

It's only normal. Due to geographic location, a good portion of newcomers to the U.S. are Mexicans.
