From 2013 to 2022, Findlay maintained a White Majority, with the white population comprising over 85% of the total. The white population decreased from 88% in 2013 to 85% in 2022. Hispanic representation grew from 5% to 7% during this period. Asian and Black populations both increased from 1% to 2%. The population identifying as two or more races rose from 1% to 2-3%. These changes indicate a slow transition towards greater diversity, though the city remains in the Low Diversity category due to the dominant white majority.

The population remained relatively stable, with minor fluctuations between 50,779 and 51,816 over the decade. The increasing median income correlates with the gradual diversification of the population, suggesting that economic opportunities may be attracting a more diverse workforce to the area.
The trends in Findlay align with broader national patterns of increasing diversity in many American cities, albeit at a slower pace. The stability in population and gradual income growth suggest a relatively steady local economy, which may be attracting new residents from diverse backgrounds.
Findlay is likely to continue its slow transition towards greater diversity over the coming years. While it may remain in the Low Diversity category in the near term, it could potentially move towards Moderate Diversity if current trends accelerate. The Hispanic population shows the most significant growth and could become a more prominent demographic group.
Economically, the city appears poised for continued stable growth. The correlation between increasing diversity and rising median income suggests that Findlay may benefit from this demographic shift, potentially attracting more diverse talent and businesses.
Findlay remains a predominantly white community with low diversity. Subtle shifts in its demographic makeup and steady economic growth indicate a gradual transition. This evolution, if continued, could lead to a more diverse and economically robust community in the future, potentially transitioning from Low Diversity to Moderate Diversity over the next decade or two.
