Hispanic.
Similarities: Both humans Difference: Different race, language, lighter skin and darker skin, puerto ricans are US citizens
Puerto ricans are no dirtier than any other race. Saying that puerto ricans are dirty is a stereotype. No one group of people are dirty. There can be dirty people of all races and ethnicities.
Mexican is not a race. It's a nationality. Puerto Ricans, like Mexicans, are members of the group called "Hispanics", however, even that is not, technically, a "Race", but an "Ethnicity". The officially recognized "Races" are White, Black, Asian, Pacific Islander, and American Indian. No, they are primarily Taíno. Taino, is not a race either.
NO... Ruerto Ricans are labeld as Hispanic , Latin non white , Spanish non white, and they would be all worng Puerto Ricans are Caribbean ... Comment by asharp1999: I think race is just stupid and pointless. We are all people.
Puerto Ricans are among some of the most diverse people in the world.
Daddy Yankee was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico so his race or ethnicity is hispanic
Neither. Puerto Ricans are as varied in origins as any American. There are white europeans, black africans, native americans, and many from the orient and every shade in between.
That is like asking "When did you stop beating your wife." Of course they are not nor is anyone of any race, creed or religion to be classed in such a manner.
A mixture of the Native American Taino, the African slave and the Spaniard produces what is commonly called the Puerto Rican. However a Puerto Rican resident can be of any race and of any color. There are Asian Puerto Ricans, and even Pacific Islanders so learn to expect and to accept people for who they are.
Puerto Rican.

Wrong! She was NOT born in "Nuyorican, Puerto Rico" because no such place exists. FACT: LaLa Vasquez was born in BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. LaLa Vasquez is Puerto Rican/American. Nuyorican is a term derived from combining "New York" and "Puerto Rican" and is specifically used to describe Puerto Rican people who moved from Puerto Rico to New York to live and/or Puerto Ricans born in New York (such as LaLa) Before you post an answer on this site, please do some research and post something intelligent and not stupid misinformation.
