What Is the Most Common Interracial Couple Combination?
What the research says about which mixed couples are most common — and how that's changing.
In the United States, Pew Research Center's analysis of newlyweds found that the most common intermarried pairing was one Hispanic and one white spouse — around four in ten intermarried newlywed couples.
Other common pairings
- One white and one Asian spouse (around 15%)
- One white and one multiracial spouse (around 12%)
- One white and one Black spouse (around 11%)
Trends
Intermarriage is higher among younger, college-educated adults and in metropolitan areas. Black-white marriages have grown fastest in recent decades, especially among Black newlyweds.
Outside the US
Patterns differ by country: in the UK, mixed relationships are especially common in London; in Brazil and much of Latin America, mixed heritage is part of the national story.
