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.
