These trends align with broader national patterns observed in many suburban areas near major cities. These patterns include increasing diversity in traditionally white-majority suburbs, growth in Asian and Hispanic populations in middle to upper-middle-class communities, and rising median incomes in diverse, educated suburban areas.

Based on observed trends, Niles is likely to continue its trajectory towards increased diversity and economic prosperity. The community may transition from moderate diversity to high diversity within the next 5-10 years if current trends persist. The white population could potentially drop below 50%, leading to a majority-minority status, though this would likely take more than a decade at current rates. Median income is likely to continue rising, potentially reaching or exceeding $90,000 within the next few years.

Niles exemplifies a suburban community in transition, moving from a predominantly white, middle-class area to a more diverse, affluent suburb. This evolution reflects broader national trends of increasing suburban diversity and the economic contributions of immigrant communities. The challenge for Niles will be to maintain community cohesion and leverage its growing diversity for continued economic and cultural enrichment.
