A jurisdiction where the majority of the population is of an ethnic or racial minority in some larger jurisdiction. For example, many urban areas in the United States are majority African-American, while in the country as a whole they are in the minority.

It's official. Caucasians are now a minority majority in California. There are more non-whites than there are whites. According to census results, white people consist of only 49.9% of the population of California. The population of Hispanics, Asians, and African Americans has increased significantly, whereas the white population has actually decreased over the last ten years. If this trend continues, whites will be a true minority in California within the next ten years.
