Florida Is 2021's 8th Most Diverse State in America

With Hispanic Heritage Month in full swing and women holding a record number of Fortune 500 CEO positions (still only 8.1% of the total), the personal-finance website WalletHub today released its report on 2021’s Most & Least Diverse States in America, as well as accompanying videos and expert commentary.

To determine where the most idea and identity exchanges have occurred at the highest level in the U.S. — and where the population is relatively more homogeneous — WalletHub compared the 50 states across six key categories: socio-economic, cultural, economic, household, religious and political diversity.

Diversity in Florida (1=Most Diverse, 25=Avg.):

• 22nd – Educational-Attainment Diversity
• 8th – Racial & Ethnic Diversity
• 7th – Linguistic Diversity
• 2nd – Birthplace Diversity
• 11th – Industry Diversity*
• 27th – Occupational Diversity*
• 3rd – Marital-Status Diversity
• 1st – Generational Diversity
• 12th – Household-Type Diversity

*Includes civilian employed population aged 16 and older
