About this data
Counts people of Hispanic or Latino origin by specific origin (table B03001). Hispanic origin can be of any race.
Several U.S. cities have a neighborhood known as Little Havana. Census figures are published for cities, counties and ZIP codes rather than named neighborhoods, so the rankings here show where Cuban Americans live across whole places.
Figures are American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates and have margins of error, which are larger for small places.
