Is Hazleton, Pennsylvania the best example of ethnic replacement?

submitted by 8thmonitor from self.debatealtright

I think I heard this from Tucker.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazleton,_Pennsylvania#Demographics

In 2000, 92.8% Non-Hispanic White and 4.9% Hispanic or Latino.

In 2020, 33.0% Non-Hispanic White and 63.1% Hispanic or Latino.

I never heard of any other city that turned whites into a minority in just 20 years. I remember seeing a video that said this is unironically a good thing because mass immigration improved the city's economy. Bruh.

Rookie numbers. There are Canadian cities that are less than 20% White these days.

True, but did the shifts happen in less than or equal to 20 years? That is the craziest part of Hazleton

I live in the UK and have seen many towns go from basically 100% white British to less than 50% within 20 years. Mass immigration really ramped up after Tony Blair’s election in 1997

Suburbs of Glasgow like Govanhill & Pollokshields have changed dramatically, but England is even far worse, towns like Luton, Bradford, Leicester, even London has gone massively downhill hill since the 90’s

it's basically any rural town with a big ag facility or factory that ends up like this. maybe uncle ted had somewhat of a point...

Just wait until 2040 when +95% of the boomers have died off. They're like 20-25% of the population. Whites will be a minority everywhere.

How does this compare to the argument there are "more white people today"? Any declines in absolute population?
