Abstract | Statistical tables, graphs, and photographs accompany this narrative summary that highlights 1980 census information abut Hispanics in the United States and emphasizes Hispanic progress since the 1970 census. Comparisons are made between 1970 and 1980 census information and between Hispanics and the total United States population. Text is presented in Spanish and English on facing pages, and tables and graphs are labeled in both languages. Broad topics are population growth and distribution, population age, family characteristics, education, voter participation, and future trends. Hispanic population growth is reported as having increased by 61% from 1970, up to a total of 14.6 million or 6.4% of the total population. Tables show Spanish-origin persons by race and by four Hispanic groups--Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, and other Spanish. Census data are cited showing that in comparison to the total population the Hispanic population is substantially younger, has fewer years of schooling, is more likely to be unemployed, and is less likely to vote. Progress since the 1970 census is noted for percentage of high school graduates and for women's educational attainment. Discussion of future trends includes prediction of continued population growth and the need for jobs and appropriate education. (JHZ) |
