Diversity in the US

 

Hawaii is the most diverse state, with Asian, white, and multiracial people each representing more than 20% of its population. Maine is the least diverse: it's the only state where non-Hispanic white people are more than 90% of the population. 2020's least diverse county was Starr County on the Texas-Mexico border. With a 98% Hispanic population, there's less than a one in 20 chance that two random people in the county come from one of eight different racial or ethnic groups. One hundred and twenty-four million people (or 37% of Americans) live in counties that are more diverse than the US overall. New York's Queens County is the largest of these diverse counties: it's home to more than 2.4 million people with no single racial or ethnic group making up more than 28% of the population. USA Facts
