The U.S. Latino population has grown dramatically since the 1970s, translating to a growing share of the electorate and shaping presidential elections over the past several decades, according to figures released by the Census Bureau Thursday.
According to the latest U.S.-Longitudinal Survey of Youth Population, 8.4% of U.S. Hispanics were foreign-born between 2010 and 2014. Comparatively, 6.7% were foreign-born in 1970, published in the General Social Survey.
The accompanying chart, released Wednesday by the Census Bureau, shows the Hispanic share of the total U.S. population has closed the gap with four decades ago. Initially, the share of the American population that was Latino was above 40%; by 2000, it slid to 33.9% from 36.8%.
The shift to foreign-born Hispanics has taken place particularly in Florida and Nevada. In Florida, the 6.2% share of Hispanics born in other countries is the largest proportion, followed by Arizona and Virginia. In Nevada, the 5.8% share is largest among Hispanic states and territories.
Russford Brown, a University of Denver demographer, noted that the Great Recession has affected U.S. Latino marriage rates.
"More so than any other group during the recession, Latino youth have been impacted by the Great Recession. There is evidence that our relationships have gotten worse," he said in an email. "As a result, more children are actually coming into the public school system, creating negative feedback on some of their teen future relationships that could also affect their future life circumstances."
The numbers have implications for electoral politics. In 2012, many analysts pegged Hispanic support relative to the total population at a record low, 10%, though they differed as to just how much support it might offer, Brown said.
"Since 2012, the share has swelled to about 17%, the largest share of any major group – including African American, Asian and White populations," he said. "Given the roughly equal proportion of Latinos in the electorate, this prolonged period of high growth helps explain why many swing states are having tight races. With each period of growth, the
