    Demographics in the Dallas Region continue to change. More than 18 percent of residents are foreign-born, with Hispanics accounting for the largest minority group in both the region and the state. Additionally, the region’s workforce is relatively young and well educated. More than 60 percent of workers 25 years of age and older have at least some college education, with nearly a third holding a bachelor’s degree or other advanced degree. The region’s low cost of living means we enjoy a higher standard of living on a lower median household income than most other large metro areas.

     TOTAL POPULATION: 7.9 MILLION

    That’s more than the combined populations of Alaska, Hawaii, Maine, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont and Wyoming!  The rapid influx of residents made the Dallas Region one of the fastest-growing U.S. metros over the past decade.
