43% in CA don't speak English at home

[cawacko]

Kind of interesting. I saw this stat in the L.A. Times this morning in an article about doctors or hospitals having translation services available for patients. I'm pretty sure there is no majority in California. I believe whites still make up the largest minority but soon to be passed by Hispanics. That 43% number still surprised though. I would not have thought it that high.

I have a one year old niece who my sister is going to teach Spanish as she's growing up because if you want to live in CA its a good thing to know.

the next set of stats i'd like to see are the ones denoting the races and groups of people fleeing California and the language they speak.

Maybe I should clarify that the article didn't say 43% couldn't speak English it just said 43% speak a language other than English as their first language at home.

Haha, good luck with that. S.F. is almost all white and asian. While values may drop in certain parts of the city this city will never be 'affordable'.

You seem confused... which is expected of a USC grad.... but it would be the STANFORD grads keeping Cali afloat.... with a bit of help from UCLA grads.
