NASCAR has such a huge fan base you could market almost anything and find people that it would apply to but some companies target market might match better to who watches NASCAR. So out of NASCAR’s 75 million fans 60 percent of those are male and of course the other 40 percent is females. 32 percent are between the ages 18-34, 43 percent are 35-44, and the other 43 percent are 45 or older. 42 percent of NASCAR’s fan base makes 50,000 dollars or more every year, which happens to be more affluent than the US population. The complete income distribution is 29 percent make 30-50,000 dollars, 22 percent make 50-75,000 dollars, 12 percent make 75-100,000 dollars, and 8 percent make over 100,000 dollars every year.
It could be argued that minorities have achieved equality since there are increasing graduation rates amongst all ethnic groups between 2001 and 2008. For example, black graduation increased from 78% to 80%, Hispanic increased from 57% to 60%. Asians remained at a constant 85%. Despite this, whites still have a higher graduation rate than blacks and Hispanics at 84%. In addition to this, blacks and Hispanics are more likely to be unemployed than whites and Asians.
history? What have been the common ancestral backgrounds of each of these groups? When did each become a significant or notable minority group? Some of the largest racial minorities in U.S. history would have to be German, Irish, Italian, and Polish Americans, all of these make up most Americans ethnic backgrounds. The American today is surrounded by remnants of cultures and practitioners of religions whose origins are foreign to this country.
It is also estimated that White Non-Hispanic Americans will be less than half the population at this point with 46.3 percent of the population being that race. Hispanics however are estimated to be 30.2 percent of the population, that's exponential growth within the next four decades! Who knows the impact this will have on our society and culture as well. With White Non-Hispanic Americans being less than half the population we are becoming a truly equally diverse society. Due to the diversity of it's people, the United States has some challenges to face in the coming years.
Hispanic American Diversity In the United States more than one in eight people are of Spanish or Latin American origin (Schaefer 2006). The Hispanic population was the largest ethnic or race group averaging at 14.5 million people as of July 1, 2007 according to the infoplease web site (2007). The Hispanic population makes up 15% of the nation’s population. According to the Census Bureau, by 2050 the Hispanic population will grow to 132.8 million people (infoplease 2007). We think of the Hispanic or Latino population as the same, but they are actually very diverse.
In 2004, there were 4,919 black inmates per 100,000 black males in the United States, compared to 1,717 Hispanic males per 100,000 and only 717 white males per 100,000. This seems to be quite the racial divide. This could be the result of racism within the system. In a similar issue, the percentage of women in the prison system is on the rise as well. The number of women has risen 2.9% since 1995, reaching 103,310 in 2001, compared to 2.0% increase in male inmates, reaching 1,390,906.
Its demographic growth rate declined from 2.6% to 1.6% between 1950 and 2000; population is expected to reach approximately 42 million in 2050. As of 2007, 75.9% lived in urban areas and 24.1% in rural areas. Major cities include Lima (home to over 8 million people), Arequipa, Trujillo, Chiclayo, Piura, Iquitos, Cusco, Chimbote, and Huancayo all reported more
Germany is made up of sixteen states, several of which have the names of the separate territories from pre-1871 Germany, such as Brandenburg, Bavaria, and Saxony. That much of Germany existed as separate territories for so long a time, there are differences between different regions of Germany reflecting the different cultural traditions of those regions. Today, Germany has a population of about 82 million; it is the largest European nation, by population. There are 4 cities with more than 1 million inhabitants, and another 11 cities with a population between 490,000 and 690,000. A little over 80% of the population is ethnic Germans.
The majority of cases occur in minority groups, particularly recently arrived immigrants from countries with high endemicity who often congregate in deprived communities within wealthy cities. In the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, people from the Indian subcontinent and sub-Saharan Africa living in inner cities have higher rates of TB than the general population; particularly during the first years after arriving in the country, (WHO 2008). Within the developed world immigration is the greatest factor contributing to the increase in cases. In England 60% of cases are in ethnic minority groups, which comprise only 5% of the population. Of these individuals from the Indian Subcontinent form the majority, ( online ref), and one of the explanations attributed to this surged of tuberculosis in the capital of London is not only due to the intensification of immigrants living in the cities, but the living environments in which they find themselves , overcrowding, poorly ventilated housing, malnutrition, smoking, stress, social deprivation and poor social capital.
Other states, however, are known as big users of the death penalty. States like California, Texas, and Florida rank the highest among them. Since the Supreme Court validated state reformed capital punishment systems in 1977, 1,000 people have been executed” (“Death Penalty Arguments & Resources: Northern Illinois University” 2003). During this time the amount of people who support the death penalty had changed. According to the Death Penalty Information Center, “The highest level was 80 percent in 1994, and the lowest 40 percent in the late 1990s” (Bedau Hugo, 2003).
