description: What's this new book about? Using the Census 2000 data, the authors map and analyze in detail the residential distributions of Whites, Blacks, Latinos, American Indians, and Asians as of 2000 and changes that occurred during the 1990s in the five counties of the greater Los Angeles area. In addition, there is coverage by maps and text for Central Americans, five specific Asian nationality groups, homeownership rates, and people who reported two or more identities in Census 2000. Colorful maps in this 11 by 15 inch, 64-page book cover all of Los Angeles and Orange Counties, virtually all of Ventura County, and the western portions of Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. Many maps show group distributions by census tract as of 2000 and other maps identify the locations of each ethnic group's gains and losses during the 1990s. A dramatic population dot map shows total population distribution against a darkly shaded terrain. There are also summary maps of predominant ethnic groups and of ethnic diversity in different neighborhoods. Various tables provide figures on the ethnic populations and colorful photographs provide a flavor of some of the ethnic neighborhoods.
