LOS ANGELES COUNTY: THE CENSUS STORY : Los Angeles County Population Figures

About This Section

The Times today presents a comprehensive look at the evolving demographies of Los Angeles County, examining the ethnic composition of more than 160 communities and how it has changed during the past 10 years.

A computer comparison of new 1990 census data and 1980 figures indicates that the county is less segregated than it was 10 years ago. At the same time, the numbers suggest that new pockets of ethnic imbalance may be in the making.

Included in this special census report:

* A comprehensive listing of Los Angeles County’s 163 cities and communities detailing 1990 population figures, ethnic composition of each community and the percentage of growth or decline in each population group since 1980.

* Two pages of color maps that paint a picture of the county’s population shifts and movements between 1980 and 1990.

* NOTES: In both 1980 and 1990, the Census Bureau allowed people to characterize themselves two ways: 1) Racially (white, black, Asian, American Indian and other); 2) Ethnically (if they were of Latino origin.) To give the most complete portrayal of Southern California’s population, Latinos of all races are counted as one group while the non-Latino portion of each race is reported separately. Non-Latino whites are identified as Anglos. In 1980, Asians and American Indians who were not also ethnically Latino were combined in a single category. They were reported separately in 1990.

* Los Angeles city community planning area figures result from Los Angeles Times calculations. Official city figures, when available, may differ because of different apportioning of split census tracts.

* Research for the Times’ census project was conducted by Richard O’Reilly, director of computer analysis, and Maureen Lyons, statistical analyst.
