2010 US Census looks at our nation’s changing racial and ethnic diversity. It is part of a series that analyzes population and housing data, and it provides a snapshot of race and Hispanic origin in the United States. Racial and ethnic population group distributions and growth at the national level and at lower levels of geography are presented. It also help the government in data on Hispanic origin and race and are used in the legislative redistricting process carried out by the states and in monitoring specific areas. More broadly, data on Hispanic origin and race are critical for research that underlies many policy decisions at all levels of education. It is helpful to evaluate programs, or just to enforce laws through the Unite States. I personally found this information important hold my thoughts about the large amounts of Latinos in our schools and the importance in knowing their heritage.
