In fact, as of 1998, the United States had the fifth largest Hispanic population—approximately 30 million people—according to research by American Demographics. California alone had 5.5 million people who spoke Spanish at home. Other states with high Spanish-speaking populations included Texas (3.4 million), New York (1.8 million) and Florida (1.5 million).
