The population of Houston


Houston is one of the biggest cities in the United States in fact it is the fourth largest city which as you can imagine is very populated. The population of Houston in 2005 was over 5.7 million people and know is even larger because of immigration and a higher birth rate. Houston is 49.5% white( including hispanic/latino), 25% African , American, 0.44% Native american, 5.31% asian and 16.96% are of other races. Since Houston is so large you would think that there would be a lot of room for farming but because it population is so large and evenly distributed across the city their is not much. However, we still are very cable of growing crops farming cattle.
