Shift<\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s been a drastic and dramatic shift in the demographic makeup of the Lone Star State.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it may not be a massive margin and it does involve some technicalities, but the numbers do speak for themselves: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/biden-shows-flamin-hot-film-celebrate-hispanics-just-one-major-problem\/\" target=\"_blank\"

News<\/a> said the Hispanic demographic accounts for over 12 million Texans, while the non-Hispanic white population accounts for just 11.9 million Texans.<\/p>\n<p>The Dallas-based outlet also noted that Harris, Bexar, and Dallas counties account for the largest populations of Hispanics.<\/p>\n<h3>Harris County<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Includes 2.1 million Hispanic residents, making up 45 percent of its total population.<\/li>\n<li>Experienced an increase of 34,000 Hispanic residents from July 2021 to July 2022.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Bexar County<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Includes 1.2 million Hispanic residents.<\/li>\n<li>Gained 19,000 Hispanic residents from July 2021 to July 2022.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Dallas County<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Has 1.07 million Hispanic residents, accounting for 41 percent of its residents.<\/li>\n<li>Gained 8,774 Hispanic residents from July 2021 to July 2022.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Hill said the Hispanic population has been significantly outpacing the non-Hispanic white population in terms of growth.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last 10 years, the non-Hispanic white population in Texas has grown by 4.7 percent.<\/p>\n<p>During that same span, the Hispanic population in Texas has grown by a whopping 27.5 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, despite what feels like an ideological <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/gordon-ramsay-ditches-california-moves-business-hq-texas-taxes-cost-living\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chasm<\/a> between the two states and their respective leaderships, Texas and California now share a couple of milestones in common, according to the Census data.<\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, California and Texas represent the two largest states in the country \u2014 and both are also predominately Hispanic now, according to the Census data.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, Texas and California are the only two states with over <a

particularly juxtaposed against the muted growth of the non-Hispanic white population, does mean that capturing that demographic\u2019s vote is more important than it\u2019s ever been \u2014 and downright critical for any upset-minded candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Texas will certainly be key for what many presume is a looming GOP primary showdown between former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.<\/p>\n<p>Critically, a Texas Hispanic Policy Foundation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.txhpf.org\/2023\/05\/24\/txhpf-survey-shows-trump-has-early-lead-on-desantis-among-texas-republicans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">poll<\/a> shows Trump holding a lead over DeSantis among Texas Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>If the Florida governor wants to turn that around, the path forward seems pretty clear.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/white-people-replaced-largest-demographic-texas\/\">White People Replaced as Largest Demographic in Texas<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\">The Western Journal<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>recent data, Hispanics now make up the largest racial or ethnic group in Texas, surpassing non-Hispanic whites.
