The Hispanic Market in the United States
Since 2005, Hispanics have been the largest minority in the U.S., outnumbering African-Americans. Here are some important facts to consider:
- In the U.S., Spanish has become the unofficial second language with more than thirty million speakers.
- The purchasing power of U.S. Hispanic households increased from US$ 276 billion in 2002 to US$ 630 billion in 2004 and to nearly US$ 1 trillion in 2009.
The Hispanic media market boom has been led by network/national television advertising, which has seen growth of nearly 74 percent over the past five years. Advertising expenditures for the Hispanic market in network/national television reached $1.41 billion in 2005 – more than doubling the 1999 expenditure figures.
Approximately five hundred Spanish newspapers, 152 magazines, and 205 publishers exist in the United States. Magazine and local television advertising expenditures for the Hispanic market have also shown a strong increase from 1999 to 2003, with growth of 58 and 43 percent, respectively.
