Change in distribution of people of color, 1990-2007

Even though the state's overall population of color has more than doubled since 1990, the growth was not uniform across the state. Northern counties saw little change as their Native American populations remained stable, but many western and southern counties saw dramatic growth with the in-migration of Latinos, Laotians, Somalis, Sudanese, Hmong and other groups. Some of the highest growth, however, was in the ring suburbs of the Twin Cities.
