The United States of America crossed a major demographic milestone more than a decade ago, when babies from racial and ethnic minority groups collectively became the majority of the nation's youngest population. The US Census Bureau reported in May 2012 that 50.4% of Americans under the age of one were minorities as of July 1, 2011, compared to 49.5% in the 2010 census. For this calculation, "minority" meant anyone who was not non-Hispanic, single-race white. The demographic change remains visible in the most recent birth data. The US recorded 3,628,934 births in 2024, of which 1,783,156 were to non-Hispanic white mothers, about 49.1%. Births to mothers in all other reported racial and ethnic categories combined exceeded those to non-Hispanic white mothers.
