Abstract: This report analyzes changes among the top five Latino national subgroups over the period between 1990 and 2009 in New York City Community District 5 of the Bronx, which comprises the neighborhoods of Fordham, University Heights, Morris Heights, and Mount Hope. A profile of demographic and socioeconomic characteristics including population distribution, age, homeownership, income, educational attainment, employment, and citizenship is the focus of this report. These characteristics are compared, whenever appropriate, with those of the other major racial/ethnic components of the Bronx population -- non-Hispanic Whites, non-Hispanic Blacks, and Asians. The term Latino and Hispanic will be used interchangeably throughout this report.
