The percentage of the population that is minority (non-White or Hispanic/Latino) increased between 2000 and 2010 in each five-year age category (under five years through 85 or older).

Four Nebraska counties are “majority-minority” for those under age 5, and eight counties have 40 percent or more of their youngest children being minority. Go to the full story.
