ABOUT THIS PUBLICATION
This publication presents population-related information regarding the state of Texas. Texas’
rapidly growing Hispanic population is dramatically changing the state’s demographic and
economic landscape. Over the past decade, the Hispanic population in Texas grew 41.8%,
making up 37.6% of the state’s total population. Births have surpassed immigration as the main
driver of the dynamic growth in the state’s Hispanic population. If this trend continues, it is
likely to be the main driver of growth in the Hispanic population into the future, even if
immigration slows. Looking at the Hispanic population by region, the West and South are home
to a majority of Hispanics, while growth has been most rapid in the South and Midwest. This
provides evidence that the Hispanic population is spreading throughout the country in substantial
numbers instead of being highly concentrated in just a few traditionally Hispanic states.
The author would like to thank Dr. Steve Nivin, Director and Chief Economist of the SABÉR
Research Institute, for reviewing this publication and for providing his input. Furthermore, the
author would like to acknowledge with appreciation Jon Alonzo in providing the photographs for
this publication.

THE HISPANIC POPULATION IN TEXAS
A Comparison of the Hispanic Counts from the 2000 Census and the 2010 Census
Introduction
The 2010 Census counted 9,460,921 Hispanics in Texas, making up 37.6% of the state’s total
population. The state’s Hispanic population, which was 6,669,666 in 2000, grew 41.8% over the
decade. In comparison, non-Hispanic population grew by 10.6% since 2000.
Among children ages 17 and younger, there were 3,317,777 Hispanics in 2010, or 48.3% of this
age group. The number of Hispanic children grew 39.0% over the decade. In 2000, there were
2,386,765 Hispanic children, who were 40.5% of the population under age 18 (see Table 1).
There were 6,143,144 Hispanics ages 18 and older in 2010, a 43.4% increase from 2000.
Hispanics made up 33.6% of the adult population in 2010, compared with 28.6% and 4,282,901
people in 2000 (see Table 1).

Hispanics, who can be of any race, are the state’s largest minority group (see Figure 1). Looking
at the major groups of single-race Hispanics and non-Hispanics in 2010, 70.4% were white;
11.8% were black; and 3.8% were Asian. There was 2.7% of the state’s population, who reported
more than one race (see Figure 2). With respect to percent growth of the major racial groups over
the decade the white population increased by 19.6%, followed by blacks (23.9%), two or more
races (31.9%), and Asians (71.5%).

Births have surpassed immigration as the main driver of the dynamic growth in the state’s
Hispanic population. This trend is especially evident among the largest of all Hispanic groups –
Mexican-Americans.1 Between 2000 and 2010, the nation’s Mexican-American population grew
by 7.2 million as a result of births and 4.2 million as a result of new immigrant arrivals (see
Figure 3). The current surge in births among Mexican-Americans is largely attributable to the
immigration wave that has brought more than 10 million immigrants to the U.S. from Mexico
since 1970. Between 2006 and 2010 alone, 53% of all Mexican-American births were to
Mexican immigrant parents. As a group, these immigrants are more likely than U.S.-born
Americans to be in their prime child-bearing years and they also have much higher fertility.2 If
this trend continues, it is likely to be a key driver of growth in the Hispanic population into the
future, even if immigration slows.

Geographically, most Hispanics still live in five states that have large, long-stranding Hispanic
communities, including California, Texas, Florida, New York, and Illinois (see Table 2 & 3). In
2010, 46.5% of Hispanics lived in California and Texas alone. In 2000, that share was 50%.

However, the share of Hispanics living in other states has been growing. In this respect, the
states with the largest percent growth in their Hispanic populations include South Carolina,
Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, North Carolina, Maryland, Mississippi, and South
Dakota. In these states, the Hispanic population more than doubled over the past decade (see
Table 4). Part of the reason for these large growth rates is due to the small Hispanic population
base, but it still indicates strong growth in these states.

Looking at the Hispanic population by region, the West and South are home to a majority of
Hispanics, while growth has been most rapid in the South and Midwest (see Map 1). This
provides evidence that the Hispanic population is spreading throughout the country in substantial

The Hispanic Population in Texas
In 2010, the U.S. Census Bureau released population counts indicating that there were 9,460,921
Hispanics living in Texas. Hispanics account for 37.6% of the state’s total population. Hispanics
are defined by the U.S. Census Bureau as people of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or
Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race.3 The 2000 Census
enumerated 6,669,666 Hispanics living in Texas which was 32.0% of the total population. From
2000 to 2010, the number of Hispanics in the state increased by 2,791,255 persons or by 41.8%.
This is equivalent to a 3.56% annualized growth rate. From 2000 to 2010, the total population of
Texas increased by 4,293,741 persons, from 20,851,820 in 2000 to 25,145,561 in 2010. Hence,
the total population grew by 20.6%, and Texas had an annualized growth rate of 1.89%. Since
the 2000 Census, Hispanics contributed 65.01% to the increase of the state’s total population,
while non-Hispanics accounted for 34.99% of the population growth of Texas (see Tables 5 &
6).
Texas and Other States
With an increase of 41.8% in Hispanic population between 2000 and 2010, Texas ranked 42nd in
the nation (see Table 9). Compared to other states, however, Texas ranked second with respect to
the total number of Hispanics residing in the state. Along with Texas, the states of California,
Florida, New York, and Illinois had the largest numerical concentrations of Hispanics in 2010.
Since the 2000 Census, California, Texas, and Florida witnessed the largest absolute increase of
Hispanics with Texas ranking second. The states with the largest percent growth in their
Hispanic populations include South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, North
Carolina, Maryland, Mississippi, and South Dakota. In these nine states, the Hispanic population
more than doubled since 2000.
Spatial Variation within Texas
Between 2000 and 2010, the Hispanic population growth varied across the Texas counties. The
average annualized growth for Hispanic population within the counties was 3.2%. This compares

to an overall state annualized growth rate of 1.9%. These rates ranged from a low of -3.3% in
Foard County to a high of 10.3% in San Jacinto County. The median annualized growth rate in
Hispanic population for the counties was 2.8%.
The Hispanic population was not evenly distributed in Texas from 2000 to 2010. In 2010, 57.4%
of the state’s Hispanic population resided in counties including Harris, Bexar, Dallas, Hidalgo,
El Paso, and Tarrant. With respect to percentage distributions, eight counties had percentage
concentrations of at least 90%. Hispanics comprised more than 90% of the 2010 total population
in the following eight counties: Webb (95.7%), Starr (95.7%), Maverick (95.7%), Zavala
(93.9%), Zapata (93.3%), Jim Hogg (92.6%), Brooks (91.2), and Hidalgo (90.6%).
Although the Hispanic population continued to grow from 2000 to 2010, some of the counties
saw a decline in their percentage growth. The following nine counties had percentage decline of
at least 10%: Foard (-29.4%), Newton (-29.4%), Sterling (-15.5%), Culberson (-15.0%), Live
Oak (-13.3%), Cottle (-12.2%), Throckmorton (-12.1%), Terrell (-11.1%), and Glasscock (10.0%). The following map (Map 2) shows the state’s population percent change by county for
the period 2000-2010.
