Low rates in top 25 cities and towns with 75% of all Latino residents
Analyzing the top 25 Latino cities in Massachusetts, that is, the 25 cities with the largest Latino populations in the state, the gap between the fully-vaccinated rate for Latinos and other groups is still large. Although Latinos account for almost 25% of the population in these cities, being the largest non-white group, the fully-vaccinated rate for Latino residents at 35% is below the overall rate for the 25 cities (at 53%). Similarly, the Latino rate is 24 percentage points below Asian residents, who account for only 7% of those cities populations, and 21 percentage points below white residents.
