East Peoria's demographic composition is less diverse than many urban areas in the United States. The city's gradual increase in diversity aligns with broader national trends of increasing diversity in many communities.

Based on observed trends, East Peoria is likely to remain in the "Low Diversity" category for the foreseeable future. If the slow diversification trend continues, particularly with the growth in Hispanic and Asian populations, the city might eventually transition towards a "Moderate Diversity" category over the next couple of decades. This transition would require continued growth in minority populations and potentially some decrease in the white majority.

Economically, the steady increase in median income suggests a trend of economic growth that may continue, barring any significant economic disruptions. This economic stability and growth could potentially attract more diverse populations seeking job opportunities, further contributing to the slow diversification trend.

East Peoria remains a predominantly white, low-diversity community. Subtle shifts in demographics and steady economic growth suggest a very gradual movement towards increased diversity. This transition, while slow, could have long-term implications for the cultural and economic landscape of the city if the trends persist.
