America's Most Diverse States by Racial and Ethnic Background

States are ordered from highest to lowest total population. The "Multiracial" category combines the Census Bureau's "Some Other Race Alone" and "Two or More Races" classifications. Hispanic origin is treated as a separate category consistent with Census Bureau methodology, which classifies Hispanic identity as an ethnicity that may overlap with any racial group.
