The white population constitutes the majority of American citizens. Its percentage is close to 80% of the total population. White Americans are the overwhelming majority in the Midwestern States such as South Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming, Idaho, Iowa and Montana, and New England. Most white are of German (16.8%), Irish (12.1%), English (9.3%), Italian (5.9%), Polish (3.3%), French (3.2%), Jewish (2.2%), and Scottish (2%) descent.

Over 15% of the population is Hispanic, dominating in southwestern states such as California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Nevada. Hispanics are already the largest minority group in America.

Almost 13% of Americans are of African descent. Blacks are the largest minority in eastern and southern states such as Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and also New York.
