That’s literally every city with over 250,000 people.

I looked at that same site before. But they have this….
White alone 62%
Not sure why you didn’t add that when it’s the first one.
I hate to break it to you guys. Spain is white.
Hispanic just means Spanish speaking.

In 2012, they really were super nice. I like the place.

Why are you trying to deny people who identify as white?
I'm not. I don't have a problem with it.
Maybe my definition of white is too narrow. I just assumed it meant people of mostly European ancestry.

I'm one of the 5.99% listed as Other Race, I checked other and wrote in "Cajun" I'm not sure why I did it but I did. Check it out, I'm in Encinitas, there are 2 people listed as Cajuns on the 2020 census.

Great place to visit. Bad place to leave. Drugs are a major issue there and then cost of living is insane there

This is true, but how did the Latin countries come to speak Spanish? From Europe.
See people tend not to like this but some Spanish speakers just say white in the census because the way race is used here is different in other places.
And I have no problem with it. What I have an issue with is the media labeling Hispanics as white or not to fit some narrative.
I’ll give an example, I work with someone who was born here but her parents are from Nicaragua. They are light skinned. But they are Latinos. She’s fluent in Spanish and English. And die hard conservatives that value family.
I forget to add that mestizo is the term for people in the areas down there. It’s just mixed with European and indigenous. In some areas they are trying to go away from that, probably because of liberal bullshite.
But basically people were labeled as that to have unity. Instead of saying everyone is a different race. But now in places like Brazil they want to segregate instead of the, we are all equal. It’s such regressive bullshite.

Lots of white people living there equals low crime. Just a fact.
Posted on 7/29/22 at 10:21 pm to TTB
You would think the Hispanic population would be bigger, but I guess they all just go to LA
Posted on 7/29/22 at 10:30 pm to GumboPot
San Francisco had 56 homicides.
LA had close to
400 homicides but for a city of 4 million, not as bad as most
city's. Crime isn't the problem in Cali, it's the fact everyone wants to live there so housing is crazy expensive

It’s the most white and most conservative of all the other cities you mentioned.
So there's San Diego white and then there's Portland white.

Pretty much any answer to questions about why a city is nice or shitty is demographics. Liberal policies is always the other answer.

I can assure everyone enquiring, the weather here is terrible!!! Madness. High 80s and low 60s in the county. Unbearable.
And no mosquitoes

Not true really. Spanish Mediterranean and Mexican culture dominate cuisine and architecture. San Diego also has a ton of Pacific Islanders and Japanese immigrants.

Per those statistics, we can conclude that places with majority white residents are nicer than places that don’t have majority white populations.

I don’t think you get it.

Slavery Doesn’t have roots there

Lots of gun toting ex-military there. You don't mess with former Jarheads, Navy Seals and SWCC folks.
Great seafood and Asian food.
