"Who We Are" Series

The Who We Are Series provides a comprehensive look at the characteristics of America’s three major minorities: Asians, blacks, and Hispanics. In addition to detailed estimates of their numbers nationally and by state and metropolitan area, the three volumes in the Who We Are Series include the latest socioeconomic data on each population. It has detailed spending data for households and the latest data on household wealth. Results from the American Time Use Survey are also presented, profiling time use and comparing it to the averages.

The Who We Are Series is designed for easy use. Each volume is divided into ten chapters arranged alphabetically: Attitudes, Education, Health, Housing, Income, Labor Force, Living Arrangements, Population, Spending, Time Use, and Wealth (there are no wealth data for Asians). Descriptive text and charts accompany most of the tables, highlighting the important trends.
