Census: Latinos one-seventh of U.S. population
Hispanics accounted for half of the 2.9 million U.S. population growth from 2003 to 2004 and now constitute one-seventh of all people in the United States.
A Census Bureau report issued Thursday said that trend probably will continue because of immigration and a Hispanic birth rate outstripping non-Hispanic blacks and whites.
The agency estimated there are 41.3 million Hispanics in the United States. The bureau does not ask about legal status so its numbers are intended to include everyone.
