IMPROVED: Hawaii is one of the most racially diverse places in the world as there is no majority - everyone is in a minority. In the 2010 Census, more than 23 percent claimed multi-ethnic backgrounds, far more than any other state. You will find a "mixed plate" of ethnic groups in Hawaii, including Hawaiian, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Caucasian, Japanese and others.

Almost 40% of Hawaii's population is Asian, about 23% is Caucasian, about 10% is Hawaiian (or other Pacific Islander), about 9% is Hispanic, about 2% is Black, and about 24% of all Hawaiian residents are of multi-ethnic background.

As Hawaii has become a home to many different ethnic groups in the last 200 years, each ethnic group has added elements of its own culture to local life. Today, contemporary culture in Hawaii is a mix of the different cultures and ethnic groups that make up its unique population.

OLD ANSWER: Hawaiians are their own ethinicity, as that term refers to the indigenous people of the Hawaiian Islands. People that live in Hawaii are referred to as Hawaii residents, or kama'aina by the locals. Hawaii residents can be of ethnicity, the state has no ethnic majority. However, the largest minorities are Caucasian, Japanese, and Chinese, in that order.
