An article by SUSANNA KIM in ABCNews listed 10 interesting findings by 2010 US census which shows minority groups growing, old industrial cities like Detroit and Cleveland shrinking, and plenty of homes still to be had in central Florida. Those are just some of the pieces of information coming out as the Census Bureau rolls out data from last year’s survey.
