The number of Hispanic persons in America is expected to grow to comprise more than 25 percent of the U.S. population by 2050. That growth is already helping to propel the growth of Hispanic-owned businesses by nearly 15 times the national rate. Wallethub analyzed 23 metrics in the top 182 cities to determine the cities most friendly to Hispanic entrepreneurs. The top cities come from all over the country, but the top quartile of metro areas for Hispanics included no cities in the Mid-South (Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Kentucky, Arkansas and Virginia).
