What's the population of America? What is the proportion of people in China?

According to the statistics of the United States Census Bureau at the end of 20 17, the total population of the United States is 32 1004407. Chinese Americans (including Chinese from China, Hongkong, China, Macau, China, Singapore, China, Taiwan Province Province of China and Southeast Asia) account for 1.3%, with a population of 4 108085.

Asian Americans (excluding Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders) are the third largest minority, accounting for 5% in the 2005 census. Most Asian Americans are concentrated in the West Coast and Hawaii. The largest ethnic group of Asian Americans comes from Chinese Americans, including China, Hongkong, China, Macau, China, China, Singapore, Taiwan Province Province of China, China, Malaysia and Southeast Asia, followed by India, the Philippines, Vietnam, South Korea and Japan.

If you can only choose one ethnic group, white Americans account for 73% and the number is 234,370,202. Among them, whites without Hispanic or Latino background accounted for 6 1.5%, whites with Hispanic or Latino background accounted for 197277729, and whites with Hispanic or Latino background accounted for 65438+.

Most Americans (74.67% in 2004) are descendants of European white immigrants. These immigrants settled in the first colonies at that time, and many of them came to the United States in the "Southern Reconstruction Movement" after the Civil War. Due to the high birth rate of non-white immigrants and ethnic minorities, the proportion of white non-Latino Americans is gradually decreasing.
