This Pew Research report on how the nation will look demographically in the decades ahead is not really surprising for those who have been paying attention over the years to the well established trends that have long been underway.
Basically, we’re becoming less white and grayer (note the link to the left - someone felt the need to buy the domain greyorgray.com to answer what was, apparently, a commonly asked question and, not surprisingly, it shows up as the first search result for “grey or gray?”).
Anyway, there’s a really neat interactive graphic with the Pew story about how the nation is aging and the start point (1950) and end point (2060) of said graphic are shown below.
More on the changing ethnicity of the country and the implications of it all make this a report that is well worth reading, especially if you’re many years younger than me…
