Euless, Texas, as of 2022, presents a demographic landscape categorized as a "Moderate Diversity" community. The city has a population of 68,190 and a median income of $73,887. It displays a mix of racial groups, with no single group constituting a clear majority. This current state reflects significant demographic shifts over the past decade, transitioning from a previously "White Majority" community to one with a more balanced racial composition.
Euless has undergone a notable transformation in its racial makeup over the past decade. In 2013, the city could be classified as having a "White Majority," with 54% of the population identifying as white. However, by 2022, this percentage had decreased to 40%, no longer constituting a majority. This shift has moved Euless from a "White Majority" category to a "Moderate Diversity" classification.
The most significant changes include a decrease in the white population from 54% in 2013 to 40% in 2022, an increase in the Black population from 10% to 17%, a rise in the Asian population from 10% to 14%, a slight increase in the Hispanic population from 19% to 20%, and a notable increase in individuals identifying as two or more races, from 2% to 7%. These changes suggest that Euless is transitioning towards becoming a "High Diversity" community, with multiple racial groups having significant representation.
Alongside these demographic shifts, Euless has experienced steady economic growth. The median income has increased from $66,849 in 2013 to $73,887 in 2022, representing a 10.5% growth over the decade. This economic improvement correlates with the increasing diversity, suggesting that the city has been attracting a more diverse, skilled workforce. The population has also grown significantly, from 58,771 in 2013 to 68,190 in 2022, a 16% increase. This population growth, coupled with increasing diversity and rising median income, indicates that Euless has been an attractive destination for various racial groups seeking economic opportunities.
The trends observed in Euless align with broader patterns seen in many suburban areas across the United States, particularly those near major metropolitan centers. The increasing diversity and steady economic growth are characteristic of areas experiencing suburban diversification and economic development.
Based on the observed trends, Euless is likely to continue its trajectory towards becoming a "High Diversity" community in the near future. The consistent decrease in the white population percentage, coupled with increases in other racial groups, suggests that within the next 5-10 years, Euless may meet the criteria for "High Diversity," where no racial group comprises more than 40% of the population, and at least three groups have significant representation (over 10% each). Economically, if current trends persist, Euless can expect continued growth in median income and population. The city's ability to attract a diverse population while maintaining economic growth suggests a positive outlook for future development and prosperity.
Euless represents an example of a "Transitional Community," evolving from a predominantly white suburb to a diverse, economically vibrant city. This transition reflects broader national trends of increasing diversity in suburban areas and highlights the potential for economic growth alongside demographic changes.
