Some academic research has looked into the divorce rates among racial minorities in the U.S. The numbers are interesting because it seems certain ethnic groups have more marital instability than others. According to a 2014 survey, Native Americans see the highest divorce rate and Asian Americans see the lowest divorce rate. About 45% of Native Americans and 18% of Asian Americans reported being divorced. People of all races can experience relationship strife and marital conflict. The divorce rate was relatively high in the Black community. About 42% of Black men and women identified as divorcees. Among Latino Americans, women were slightly more likely than men (30% vs. 38%) to report being divorced or married more than once. Disclaimer: Please don’t take these numbers too seriously. These statistics do not control by age, education, class, or income, so it’s hard to gauge what’s going on here. We’re pretty sure that skin tone isn’t the main factor driving these couples to divorce or to stay together, and more detailed data would undoubtedly tell a more nuanced story than this quick snapshot of the U.S. divorce rate segmented by race.
