South Greensburg's demographic changes have been minimal compared to national trends of increasing diversity in urban and suburban areas. The persistent low diversity in this borough contrasts with broader national patterns.
Based on observed trends, South Greensburg is likely to remain in the "Low Diversity" category for the foreseeable future. If the gradual increase in Hispanic population continues and accelerates, the community might slowly transition towards a "Transitional Community" status over the next decade or two.
Economically, the area appears relatively stable but vulnerable to broader economic shocks. The median income has not shown a clear trend, suggesting that significant economic changes are unlikely in the near term unless influenced by broader regional or national economic shifts.
In conclusion, South Greensburg shows early signs of potential demographic change, occurring at a slow pace. The community remains predominantly white with a stable, middle-income economic profile. Any transition to increased diversity or significant economic change is likely to be a long-term process rather than an imminent shift.
