The Hispanic Population

The number of Hispanic children grew from 2010 to 2020. The data show 1 in every 4 children, 25.7% (18.8 million), in the United States were of Hispanic origin in 2020, up from 23.1% (17.1 million) in 2010.

States with the largest percentage point increases in their proportion of Hispanic children over the decade: Connecticut, up 6.5 percentage points; Maryland, up 6.5; Rhode Island, up 6.2; New Jersey, up 5.9; and Florida, up 4.9.

Among them, New Jersey and Florida each added over 100,000 Hispanic children over the decade. Florida experienced the largest numeric increase across all states, adding over a quarter million Hispanic children to its population from 2010 to 2020.

In three of the five states (Connecticut, New Jersey, Rhode Island), the total number of children declined between 2010 and 2020 while the number of Hispanic children increased.

According to annual estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau, as of July 1, 2024, the Hispanic population was estimated at 68,086,153, representing approximately 20% of the total U.S. population.
