U.S. Population to reach 300 Million this year...
U.S. nearing 300 million population
Associated Press
Published June 26, 2006
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. population is on target to hit 300 million this autumn, and it's a good bet the milestone baby--or immigrant--will be Hispanic.
No one will know for sure because the date and time will be just an estimate.
But Latinos--immigrants and those born in this country--are driving the population growth. They accounted for almost half the increase last year, more
than any other ethnic or racial group. White non-Hispanics, who make up about two-thirds of the population, accounted for less than one-fifth of the
increase.
As of midday Sunday, there were 299,061,199 people in the United States, according to the Census Bureau's population clock. The estimate is based on
annual numbers for births, deaths and immigration, averaged throughout the year.
The U.S. adds a person every 11 seconds, according to the clock.
A baby is born every eight seconds, someone dies every 13 seconds, and someone migrates to the U.S. every 30 seconds.
At that rate, the 300 millionth person in the U.S. will be born--or cross the border--in October, though bureau officials are wary of committing to a
particular month because of the subjective nature of the clock.
The population reached 200 million in 1967.

The U.S. population is expected to hit 300 million this fall, probably in October. It officially reached 200 million on Nov. 20, 1967.

This is Lorain. Seriously we have 19 just in the city. 10 of which just went up in the past 2 years. Next to us is Elyria and we have about 11 there.
I aint complaining either. The food in most of them is as authentic as you can get. Half the restaurants are owned by the same people and they hire
only Mexican immagrants SERIOUSLY to make and serve the food.
