Los Angeles County in Southern California has undergone startling demographic changes especially as it concerns the Latino population which is mostly of Mexican descent. The following seven maps show graphically how the racial/ethnic populations have changed from 1940 to 2000 according to the decennial censuses. The maps were prepared at the University of California at Los Angeles.
1940
1950
1960
1970
1980
1990
2000
Note: The above figures are much worse in actuality since a very large number of Jews, Armenians, Turks, Arabs, Iranians, and various other mongrels are listed as "Anglo" in the maps. These maps also don't take into accounty the areas extremely large population of illegal immigrants
