Northfield, Vermont is 11% Dominican? I think that's a mistake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Edward77x (talk • contribs) 10:30, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Populaiton of Dominican americans in Kansas City metro area is known to be at 3,000+ acording to the local Dominican association 65.163.203.130 18:39, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Population

Ok why are there two numbers for population? Clearly the Dominican-American population is more than 1.2 million, so why is that the number in the box? Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nycstudent578 (talk • contribs) 22:11, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

That 3 million figure goes back to these edits, [1] and [2], a couple of months ago, with numbers which appear to have been made up. I've just replaced them with the ACS numbers. SamEV (talk) 21:15, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  • The Bronx is 20% dominican... your're kidding me right.
And what do you suppose is 20% of the Bronx's population?... Here's your answer:
20% * 1,357,589[3] = 271,517.8. So how does that support the claim of 3 million Dominican Americans? SamEV (talk) 00:12, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
