Single parent Family and Unemployment Rate Comparisons
Just a moment ago, I encountered two accusations concerning Latinos. One was that the majority of L:anino families are one parent families. The other was concerning Latinos being the ones suffering the most unemployment in the USA. I did some research to find out the truth and the statistical data posted below is the result
Children in single-parent families by race in the United States
42 % of Hispanic families are single parent families in the USA
64 % of African American families are one-parent families.
24% Anglo American families are of one parent families
In recent decades, Asians had the lowest unemployment rate as a racial group, followed by whites, Hispanics, and blacks. The New York Times reported some of the causes and consequences of higher black unemployment in February 2018: "Even at the low of 6.8 percent recorded in December [2017] — it climbed back to 7.7 percent in January — the unemployment level for black Americans would qualify as a near crisis for whites. And the relative gains have not erased disparities in opportunity and pay.
The unemployment rate for African Americans rose from 7.6% in August 2007 to a peak of 17.3% in January 2010, before falling back to 8.2% by May 2016. For Latinos over the same periods, the rates were 5.5%, 12.9% and 5.6% respectively. For Asians, the rates were 3.4%, 8.4%, and 3.9%.
