Orange County Population: 1990 -2008 [Sources: Census 1990 Summary Tape File 1, Census 2000 Summary File 1, and 2006 -2008 American Community Survey 3 -year estimates] * Denotes Estimate ** Data on the number of Hispanic or Latino individuals in Orange County was not available for 2006 -2008 Using Census 2000 data (the most complete dataset currently available), Orange County had a total minority population of 28,571 compared with an overall population of 118,227, giving the County a minority population of 24 %. For the purposes of this calculation, all racial or ethnic groups not categorized as "Non- Hispanic White" are considered minority groups. Using data compilations from the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council [FFIEC], which are based upon Census 2000 data, demographic research was also conducted within Orange County at the census tract level. This detailed level of analysis is necessary in order to determine the existence of racial or ethnic segregation patterns and the degree to which these minority populations are concentrated throughout the County. As depicted in the accompanying table [Table 3], the concentrations of minority populations within Orange County ranges widely. For each of the County's 22 Census tracts (as defined for the 2000 Census), the following table displays the tract's total population along with the actual number of persons belonging to the various racial and ethnic groups. Each tract's minority population is also shown as a percentage of the tract's total population. Minority populations range as high as 47.1% in Tract 107.03 to 12.2% in Tract 108.02. Similarly wide ranges exist within specific racial and ethnic groups. Whereas 2,235 Black or African Americans were counted in Tract 111.01, only 133 were counted in Tract 114. A perhaps even more striking tendency to concentrate is found among Asians, whose population ranged from a total of just 7 in Tract 108.01 to 703 in Tract 112.03.
