[edit] Stanton: Demographics
Stanton is one of Orange county's racially diverse areas. In 1990, the city was 5% black, 40% Latino and 15% Asian, but the 2000 census saw the number of blacks is lower and Asians lost a few points. A high number of Hispanics live there, plus storefronts have Greek, Russian, Hindi, Arabic and Iranian language signs, and a huge percentage of Asian immigrants since the 1970's. Orange County has a high home price issue and has driven millions of lower-income or middle-class residents out the county in the last six years. Stanton is said to lost many blacks, Asians and even Latinos by the sudden increase in home prices and rents on working poor families. I wonder if Santa Ana, Anaheim and Garden Grove are no longer held as homes to large minority and underclass populations, then are seen as mostly white and middle class from the 1950's to the late 1970's. Demography is a guessing game, but the U.S. Census may undercount or are inaccurate in some places. + 207.200.116.195 03:40, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
