Native Americans in the United States

are the peoples from the regions of

North America , including parts of
Alaska and the island state of Hawaii.
They comprise a large number of
distinct tribes, many of which survive
as intact political communities.
About 1.0 percent of the U.S.
population is of American Indian or
Alaska Native descent. This
population is unevenly distributed
across the country.
German Americans (16.8%),
Irish Americans (12.1%),
English Americans (9.3%),
Italian Americans (5.9%),
Polish Americans (3.3%),
French Americans (3.2%),
Scottish Americans (2%),
Scotch-Irish Americans (1.8%),
Dutch Americans (1.7%),
Norwegian Americans (1.5%),
Swedish Americans (1.4%),
Russian Americans (1%)
make up 60% of the “White"
population.
Included in the category are White
Hispanics representing 8.11%, mainly
Mexican Americans.
The largest city with a Hispanic
majority is San Antonio, Texas, and
the highest percentage for any major
U.S. city is El Paso, Texas at 76%.
This list does not include cities such
as Los Angeles, California or Houston,
Texas in which merely a plurality of
the residents are Hispanic.
Thirty-one states do not have any
communities that are majority-
Hispanic.
Note: Hispanics can be of any race.
 54.8% of African Americans live in
the South.
17.6% - in the Northeast
18.7% - in the Midwest,
only 8.9% - in the western states.
The west does have a sizable black
population in certain areas,
however.

California, the nation's most

populous state, has the fifth largest
African-American population, only
behind New York, Texas, Georgia,
and Florida.
Nearly three-quarters of the Asian
American population live in
metropolitan areas with
population greater than 2.5
million.

Asian Americans are concentrated

in the largest U.S. cities, with 40%
of all Asian Americans living in the
metropolitan areas around Los
Angeles, San Francisco, New York ,
and Chicago.
