Close to 98% white.

Scotland has a very tiny (by European standards) non-white or non European community.

White: 87.1%
Black or African American: 4.1%
American Indian and Alaska Native: 0.2%
Asian: 5.0%
Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander: 8 people
Some other race: 1.9%
Hispanic: 4.8%

Of the ethnic whites I'd say mostly Irish, Italian, German, Polish, and Eastern European Jews.

If we're going to get that specific. Across the street from me there is a gay couple, a pakistani family, and an elderlyish Italian couple. Next door on the left is a caucasian family, and on the right are a common law (I think) caucasian couple without children.

I can't find my town on Google so I'm making this up from observation:

White: 75%
Asian: 20%
Indian: 2.5%
Everything else: 2.5%

My part of town is lily white.  The other side of town is mostly Asian.  The two or three black families are scattered (nowhere near me).

Rin-chan

ps- Fezzy, feel free to rip this apart...

89.20% White
1.44% African American
0.05% Native American
7.85% Asian
0.01% Pacific Islander
0.40% from other races

Where the heck did you find this?  I scoured Google for 20 minutes!

None of this is the ethinic composition- it is the racial composition.  There are many brands of cracker and different versions of fence climbers;)  My neighborhood is mostly Irish and Italian American.  From my travels throughout the U.S. ethnic identity seems a lot more important in the NE of the US.

Good point -- here's the racial and ethnic composition for my town:

White Non-Hispanic (93.6%)
Hispanic (2.3%)
Black (1.1%)
Two or more races (1.0%)
Asian Indian (0.6%)
Chinese (0.6%)
Other race (0.5%)


Ancestries:
Irish (24.2%)
Italian (19.7%)
English (12.3%)
German (11.6%)
Polish (6.8%)
Hungarian (5.4%).

If the 100% is a rounded figure though, and the street had more than 200 inhabitants...

About 8.  Some of them are really from a school for troubled boys that's nearby so really only about 6 black kids.

It's weird.

Btw.  I think that .01% Pacific Islander is my neighbor (one of those that lives behind you...)
