'''Non-Hispanic Whites''', also referred to as '''non-Latino Whites''', are White Americans classified by the United States census as "White" and not of Hispanic or Latino origin.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/meta/long_68172.htm|title=White persons, percent, 2000|date=4 January 2011|access-date=19 August 2017|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110104065256/http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/meta/long_68172.htm|archive-date=4 January 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov|title=U.S. Census website|website=United States Census Bureau|access-date=19 August 2017}}</ref> According to annual estimates from the American Community Survey, as of July 1, 2024, the non-Hispanic White population was estimated at 191,382,624, representing approximately 56.3% of the total U.S. population.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://data.census.gov/table?q=B03002+United+States+plus+Puerto+Rico+2024 |title=Vintage 2024 Population Estimates by Age, Sex, Race, Hispanic Origin |access-date=2025-07-31 |website=Census.gov |language=en}}</ref>

Although non-Hispanic Whites remain the largest single racial and ethnic group in the United States, and still constitute a majority of the population, their share has declined significantly over the past eight decades. In 1940, they comprised approximately 89.8% of the total population, illustrating the extent of the demographic transformation that has occurred since the mid-20th century. This decline has been attributed to factors such as lower birth rates among White Americans, increased immigration from non-European regions, and broader sociocultural changes, including higher rates of interracial marriage and evolving patterns of racial self-identification.

The United States Census Bureau defines ''white'' to include European Americans, Middle Eastern Americans, and North African Americans.<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web |url=https://www.census.gov/prod/cen2010/briefs/c2010br-02.pdf |title=Definition of Race Categories Used in the 2010 Census |date=March 2011 |editor1=Karen R.

More than half of the white population are German, Irish, English, Italian, French and Polish Americans. Many Americans are also the product of other European groups that migrated to parts of the US in the 19th and 20th centuries, as the bulk of immigrants from various countries in Northern, Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe, as well as the Caucasus region, migrated to the United States.

The non-Hispanic White population was heavily derived from British, as well as French settlement of the Americas, in addition to settlement by other Europeans such as the Germans (see Pennsylvania Dutch), Swiss, Belgians, Dutch, Austrians, and Swedes, which began in the 17th century (see History of the United States). The early Spanish presence in the country contributed a certain degree of that ancestry to the white population in parts of the south and southwest, as many Americans of Isleño, Basque, Asturian, or colonial Spanish heritage do not necessarily identify as "Hispanic or Latino" on the census, or are interchangeable with the "non-Hispanic White" category, as they lack any ties to Latin America, or recent ties to Spain.{{cn|date=August 2025}}

Population growth since the early 19th century to the end of the 20th century is attributed to immigration and sustained high birth rates alongside relatively low death rates among settlers and natives alike. Population growth has slowed in the 21st century.

The classification is also typically used to refer to an English-speaking American, in distinction to Spanish speakers.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.leagle.com/decision/1980709494FSupp215_1669/ROACH%20v.%20DRESSER%20IND.%20VALVE%20&%20INSTRUMENT%20DIVISION|title=ROACH v.

In this context it is not limited to persons of English or even British descent, making mother tongue (in this case English) the primary factor. This in parts of the United States such as the Southwest United States with large Hispanic populations, an American of Polish, Irish, or German heritage might be termed an Anglo just as readily as a person of English descent. However, in parts of the country where the Hispanic community is smaller or nonexistent, or in areas where ethnic distinctions among European groups remain strong, Anglo has little currency as a catch-all term for non-Hispanic whites. Anglo is also used in non-Hispanic contexts. In Canada, where its usage dates at least to 1800, the distinction is between persons of English and French descent. And in American historical contexts Anglo is apt to be used more strictly to refer to persons of English heritage, as in this passage describing the politics of nation-building in pre-Revolutionary America: "The 'unity' of the American people derived ... from the ability and willingness of an Anglo elite to stamp its image on other peoples coming to this country" (Benjamin Schwarz). |publisher=Lexico Publishing Group |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080315013806/http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Anglo |archive-date=15 March 2008 |url-status=live}}</ref>

1. '''Non-European Immigration'''. The United States has the largest number of immigrants in the world, with the vast majority coming from countries where the population is of non-White and/or Latin American origin. Immigration to the United States from European countries has been in a steady decline since World War II averaging 56% of all immigrants in the 1950s and declining to 35% of all immigrants in the 1960s, 20% in the 1970s, 11% in the 1980s, 14% in the 1990s, and 13% in the 2000s.

2. '''Intermarriage'''. The United States is seeing an unprecedented increase in intermarriage between the various racial and ethnic groups. In 2008, a record 14.6% of all new marriages in the United States were between spouses of a different race or ethnicity from one another. 9% of non-Latino Whites who married in 2008 married either a non-White or Latino. Among all newlyweds in 2008, intermarried pairings were primarily White-Latino ''of any race'' (41%) as compared to White-Asian (15%), White-Black (11%), and other combinations (33%). Other combinations consists of pairings between different minority groups, multi-racial people, and Native Indigenous Americans.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://pewsocialtrends.org/files/2010/10/755-marrying-out.pdf|title=Marrying Out: One-in-Seven New U.S. Marriages is Interracial or Interethnic|website=Pewsocialtrends.org|access-date=2017-08-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160611003916/http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/files/2010/10/755-marrying-out.pdf|archive-date=2016-06-11|url-status=dead}}</ref> The children of such unions would not automatically be classified as non-Latino White.

3. '''Methodology'''. In the 2000 Census, people were allowed to check more than one race in addition to choosing "Latino". There was strong opposition to this from some civil rights activists who feared that this would reduce the size of various racial minorities. The government responded by counting those who are white and of one minority race or ethnicity as minorities for the purposes of civil-rights monitoring and enforcement. Hence one could be 1/8th Black and still be counted as a minority.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/22/opinion/fix-the-census-archaic-racial-categories.html?pagewanted=all |newspaper=The New York Times|title="Fix the Census' Archaic Racial Categories"|author=KENNETH PREWITT|date=August 21, 2013}}</ref> Also, because this does not apply to Latino origin (one is either Latino or not, but cannot be both Latino ''and'' non-Latino), the offspring of Latinos and non-Latinos are usually counted as Latino.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2012/05/majority_minority_america_will_more_hispanics_and_asians_become_white_.html|title=The Myth of Majority-Minority America|first=Matthew|last=Yglesias|date=22 May 2012|website=Slate.com|access-date=19 August 2017}}</ref> In 2017, the Pew Research Center reported that high intermarriage rates and declining Latin American immigration has led to 11% of US adults with Latino ancestry (5.0 million people) to no longer identify as Latino.<ref name=PRCFade>{{Cite web|last1= Gonzalex-Barrera |first1=Ana|last2= Lopez |first2=Gustavo |last3= Lopez |first3=Mark Hugo |title=Hispanic Identity Fades Across Generations as Immigrant Connections Fall Away |publisher=Pew Research Center|date= December 20, 2017|url=http://www.pewhispanic.org/2017/12/20/hispanic-identity-fades-across-generations-as-immigrant-connections-fall-away/ }}</ref> First-generation immigrants from Latin America identify themselves as "Latino" at a very high rate (97%), which slowly falls in each succeeding generation (in the second generation, to 92%; in the third, to 77%; and in the fourth, to 50%).<ref name=PRCFade />

4. '''Decrease'''. Minority populations are younger than non-Latino Whites. The national median age in 2011 was 37.3 years, with non-Latino Whites having the oldest median age (42.3); by contrast, Latinos had the youngest median age (27.6).
