One in seven of all marriages in the United States are considered interracial. Detailed statistics from the 2010 Census are yet to be released but the Pew Research Center did publish a report in mid-2010 which spoke about the geographical distribution of interracial marriages generally. According to that report, "there is a strong regional pattern to intermarriage. Among all new marriages in 2008, 22% in the West were interracial or interethnic, compared with 13% in both the South and Northeast and 11% in the Midwest." Appendix III of the report gives a state-by-state breakdown of the percentage of new, interracial marriages in 2008. The top 5 states were Hawaii where 48% of all newlyweds were of different races/ethnicities, followed by Nevada (28%), Oregon (24%), Oklahoma (24%), and California and New Mexico (each 22%).
