NEW YORK (CNNMoney)
White, non-Hispanic kids will no longer make up the majority of America's youth in just five to six years, according to Census Bureau projections released Wednesday.
Those projections, which include four different scenarios for population growth, estimate that today's minority ethnic groups will soon account for at least half of the under-18 population, either in 2018 or 2019.
Demographers call it a "minority-majority." No one single racial or ethnic group will make up more than half of the population.
