Take a look at the numbers from 2000 to 2020. White pop has gone from 81% to 48%. That was 6 years ago, I am sure it is 30% now.
Asian pop goes from 2% to 26%. Huge increase, it may be 35% now in 2026.
All other races seem the same.

White Flight in Texas? Due to H1Bs?

Any other cities this is happening?

Demographics changed because of Cisneros and Obama.

Obama distributed HUD around.

Which cities is the white percentage of population NOT decreasing would be a better question.

Maybe, but look at growth at Prosper, Melissa, Anna etc. and see if whites moved there?

Nobody lived in Frisco in 2000. Your numbers show that.

More white people live in Frisco now than they did in 2000. Your number show that too. I don't know how it's flight if more of them live there than before.

Frisco took off because people could get a great value on a nice home and send their kids to a good public school while commuting to jobs in DFW. A number of the people that have the income to take advantage of that are Asian and Indian. It wasn't part of something conspiratorial.

Anna, Prosper and Melissa are probably next (or actively heading that way) where the town goes from being totally rural with a small, mostly white population to a more diverse population when urban sprawl kicks in.

This. It's a fairly wealthy/low crime suburb that has tended to the regional mean over the past 20+ years of booming growth.

The more concerning trend is that Frisco will fail to draw young families (with children) to the district/city over the coming decades (and let's face it, no one under 50 is from here, so there's no anchoring family structures). That has nothing to do with race, fwiw, but the city/school district (latter is a huge financial institution) will face innumerable problems if it happens.

Part of the 'problem' is that the city/school governments know this and it makes addressing the explosive growth of the South Asian/Indian population even more challenging, imho.

You have to realize school district reputation plays a big part of the influx of Asians into Frisco.

Median income in Frisco is about $145k, it's not like it's going downhill. These are upper middle class Asians and most are assimilating, obey the law, and pay a lot of taxes.

Am I missing where Indian would come in the numbers? Other race is WAY too low if that's what it is.

The school district itself. This is why they are expanding the 'open enrollment' program, among other things.

https://dallasexpress.com/education/local-isd-sees-drop-in-enrollment/

The problem, imho, is that older neighborhoods just don't sustain the K-5 population in particular in so far as 'new' ones do. Frankly, I don't think this is reversible. It's vastly more challenging than racial shifts, again my two cents.

India is in Asia, so they are listed as Asian.
Oriental is considered offensive these days for some reason so they don't get their own category.

I post it all the time, but those numbers are the exact trends that CA experienced from the 90's to now where large portions of OC & SD became majority Asian:Indian and those areas went from solid red to blue/purple while LA & SF went from blue to ****ing lost. CA's degradation went hand in hand with the demographic change across the state. They vote ~70ish % left.

OK.
White Flight might be a tad overstated.
More like foreigners flooding in in much larger numbers than white pop coming in.

You serious bro? or just messin with us?
Maybe you should stick to the sports boards!

Just messing with you.

I am pretty familiar with the Indian thing... I have worked in IT - business software/ERP world (i.e. SAP, PeopleSoft, Workday) for the past 30 years and have seen firsthand influx of Indian workers in ERP. Just crazy fast growth. I never see any whitey names on resumes any more. Of our team of about 15, there are 11 Indians and one Pakistani all making decent 6-figure incomes (the server engineering teams are still all-white).

The vast majority of the Indians I know all live in areas zoned to Clements HS because they heard it was the "best" in Houston, and they told the new arrivals, and on and on it goes. Starting now to see an increase in my subdivision zoned to Grand Oaks HS (Spring/99 & Hardy), maybe Sugar Land is full?!?

India is in Asia, so they are listed as Asian.
Oriental is considered offensive these days for some reason so they don't get their own category.

That would make the most sense, and I can tell you H1B1 Visas from India is the vast majority of that 50K+ increase from 2010.

It's just more ret@rded liberal BS. Oriental means people, cultures, and goods from the Far East or the "Orient". I looked up why it's considered offensive and this is the garbage I found. "Cultural Sensitivity: Many consider it derogatory due to its roots in Western colonialism and stereotypical,, "exotic" views of Asia".
