With the most significant labor force participation rate of any demographic in the last twenty years and the median household income increasing nearly 50 percent since 2012, the Hispanic community has been contributing the majority of growth in homeownership (Hispanic Executive).

With this increase in wealth, the Hispanic community is leading the charge when it comes to homeownership.
