As of 2010 the racial and ethnic makeup of Fort Bend County was 36.16% Non-Hispanic whites, 21.49% blacks, 0.39% Native Americans, 16.98% Asians, 0.04% Pacific Islanders, 0.23% Non-Hispanics reporting some other race and 2.91% people reporting more than one race. 24.74% of the county population was Hispanic or Latino.


So you asked if it was a rich county.......would you feel rich making 80k a year with 2 kids while paying the mortgage on a 200k house?

IMO, the diversity in FB is more "impressive" than the income levels.
Good analysis. People who do live this lifestyle and pretend to be rich, lol.

But it is still the only red on that income map and I doubt it that those are the 35K millionaires (acting like one or pretending to be one)
But after all this is about diversity and not how rich the diverse population is.

Bring up income levels, and the Memorial clan starts chomping at the bit. How comical (and predictable).

Really Tstone? Ummm, my post was straight from Wikipedia. It answered someone's question about Fort Bend.

If anyone's "chomping at the bit" you win that prize. Let's count your nasty posts following a poster from Memorial. Why don't you start picking on the River Oaks crowd? The Memorial Circle Jerks are all filled up with your BS.

Tell me what is so diverse about
Whites 25.6%
Blacks 23.6%
Hispanics 43.8%
Asians 6.4%
?????????

Looks more like Little Mexico if you ask me.

Houston was more diverse in 1990 & 2000 when the ratios were more evenly split. Now it seems as if Houston (and the rest of Texas) are suburbs of Mexico City.
