Interracial marriage is more common in metropolitan areas than in more rural and non-metro regions. For comparison, the interracial marriage in metro areas is 18% higher than the results in non-Metro areas, which is 11%.

For example, among the newlyweds in Chicago, 35% of Asians are married to someone of a different ethnicity, compared with 24% of Hispanics, 14% of Whites, and 13% of Blacks. By far, the highest of all metro areas analyzed goes to Honolulu, with a share of 42%. The same is true in Las Vegas or Santa Barbara, California, where three in every ten newlyweds are married to a spouse with a different racial group.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Figure 10.

For example, in Asheville, 85% of the potential spouses&#8217; pool is White; in Youngstown, 79% of the marriage market is composed of Whites and another 15% of Blacks. However, this is not the case in Jackson, where the pool of potential spouses comprises 61% non-Hispanic Blacks and 36% non-Hispanic Whites, and 37% non-Hispanic Blacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The factor contributing to the low interracial marriage rates in these areas is the low acceptance rate. For example, 13% of adults from the South say interracial marriage is bad for society, while 11% from the Midwest, where Youngstown is located, say the same thing. But, in comparison, a smaller share in the West, at 4%, and 5% from the Northeast say that interracial marriage is bad for society (See discussion of interracial approval rate).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Figure 11.

A person&#8217;s age in an interracial marriage divorce rate is one factor for divorce. In 2018, there was one divorce for every 14 marriages among the ages 15 to 24 years old. But, those aged 45 to 54 and 55 to 64 have less divorce rate and fewer marriages, while those 65 and older had more divorces than marriages. Among all these age groups, only two have higher divorce rates: women aged 15 to 24 and 65 years over, which is higher than the marriage rate for the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Figure 13.&nbsp; Marriage to Divorce Rate by Age<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.doulike.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image-12.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.doulike.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image-12.png 864w, https:\/\/www.doulike.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image-12-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/www.doulike.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image-12-768x427.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\" style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><em>Source of data: https:\/\/www.bgsu.edu\/ncfmr\/resources\/data\/family-profiles\/schweizer-marriage-divorce-ratio-demo-variation-fp-19-27.html<\/em><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Interracial marriage for Other races, including Asian, Indian, American, Alaska Native, and multi-racial women, had the highest marriage-to-divorce ratio in 2018, but looking at the divorce rate alone, it is the least. Nevertheless, this percentage means that out of three women, one of them gets divorced. According to Discover Magazine, when the wife is White, a spouse of another race shows a higher divorce rate but not that high for White husbands and other races of wives.
