Two reports show the 2020 Census accurately reported the U.S. total population but undercounted some minority groups
The 2020 census significantly undercounted Black, Latino and Native American populations, while inflating the populations of other demographics, the U.S. Census Bureau reported Thursday.
The number of Blacks and Whites both declined in San Diego County, even as the area’s total population jumped by more than 6 percent to just under 3.3 million people. “Today’s results show statistical evidence that the quality of the 2020 Census total population count is consistent with that of recent censuses,” Santos said. “This is notable, given the unprecedented challenges of 2020.”
Santos said the undercounted rates seen in minority populations reflect a now long-standing trend of misrepresentation among communities of color.
