The Changing Face of the Fox Valley: Part 2

The most recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau shows us that one of the largest shifts is in the Hispanic population. In fact, Hispanics make up the largest minority group in Northeast Wisconsin. Hispanic and Latino residents of communities along the U.S. 41 interstate corridor between Oshkosh and Green Bay increased by 46% between 2010 and 2020.
