You are invited to the inaugural event of the PVCC Worldview series, a

Who Lives in Arizona?
Arizona's Changing Demography

Presented by Dr. Elizabeth Larson-Keagy

Historically, Arizona was thought of as the land of three cultures - 
Anglos, Hispanics, and Indians. The talk "Arizona's Changing Demography" 
uses national census data, media coverage, and other graphics to explore 
the way in which Arizona's population has changed over the decades, and 
given certain trends, how it will grow in the future. It examines 
current immigration and ethnicity, socio-economic disparities, and the 
age-distribution of Arizona's population by county, as well as other 
factors that help gain perspective about the changing face of Arizona. 
This presentation also raises questions about the state's population 
trends and its present and future opportunities and needs.
