The focus on black/white family disparity is interesting since the same article places Hispanic family median net wealth at just $1,200–or, basically 1/6th the net wealth of a demographic which has less than half their population in the state.
The white/hispanic disparity seems like the most stark racial contrast in the article with white family net wealth averaging 457 times the Hispanic family median.
For reference, Massachusetts’ population is approximately 7,044,056, with racial breakdowns as follows:
66.6% White
13.3% Hispanic
7.3% Asian
6.4% Black
5.1% Multiracial
1.3% Native American/Other
