A lower total level of homeownership. Figure 14 shows that a <br />smaller share of Latino households were homeowners (40%) in <br />2010, compared with non -Hispanic households (64%). <br />Higher levels of homeownership among young households. 49% <br />of Latino households aged 25 to 44 years were homeowners, <br />compared with 24% of non -Hispanic households. <br />Higher fertility rates than non -Hispanic residents. In 2010, for <br />Oregon, white non -Hispanic women between the ages of 15 and 50 <br />had 49 births per 1,000, lower than black non -Hispanics (59 per <br />1,000), and Latino (78 per 1,000). <br />If these trends continue and the Latino population grows, there will be <br />more younger households (possibly with young children) in the market <br />for purchasing a home. This has implications for the types of housing <br />needed to meet the needs of these households. <br />Figure 14.
