Based on observed trends, La Presa is likely to continue as a Majority-Minority community with increasing diversity. It may transition towards a High Diversity category in the future.

Economically, if the correlation between increasing diversity and rising median income continues, further economic growth in La Presa might be expected. However, this will also depend on broader economic factors affecting California and the nation.
La Presa represents an evolving community that embodies changing American demographics. Its transition towards greater diversity, coupled with economic growth, positions it as a microcosm of broader societal shifts towards multiculturalism and economic development in diverse communities.
