3 days agomildly interesting, but i’m pretty sure the size of the largest groups (not to mention the gap between the largest and next largest) are highly variable and in some cases are not particularly large at all, so, mapping only the largest one is vastly oversimplifying things and producing a rather misleading picture. (the census bureau’s data on the subject is here in case any map enthusiasts want to make more informative maps…)
You’re quoting something that says its from 2021, but OP’s image cites the 2013-2017 American Community Survey as its source.
Meanwhile, this interactive map (maybe from 2022?) indicates that only 0.29% (6,181 people) of New Mexico’s population were born in the Philippines, and 0.18% (3,753 people) were born in Germany.
