Latinos' Buying Power Washington State
Hispanic consumers will help the economy even in hard times. - According with the Selig Center’s Study, Multicultural Economy; Washington State is ranked 13 in buying power between 2004 and 2009.
The Latino population is the largest minority in the United States and during difficult times, many worry that an increase in the Hispanic population means a larger strain on our economy. Many recent studies suggest that this is a myth and that Hispanic population actually boosts the economy.
The Commission on Hispanic Affairs, Scarborough Hispanic marketing study and Larson Northwest Hispanic Market Report found the following information:
• From 1990 to 2005, Hispanic purchasing power grew 365.5 percent in Washington State.
• In 2006, Latino families spent $9.5 billion in Washington State, including $510 million in groceries, $208 million in food establishments and $102 million on clothing.
