The ethnic groups in South Africa have a variety of origins. Statistics South Africa asks people to describe themselves in the census in terms of five racial population groups.[1]The 2011 census figures for these categories were Black African at 76.4%, White at 9.1%, Coloured at 8.9%, Asian at 2.5%, and Other/Unspecified at 0.5%.[2]:21
Statistics South Africa provided five racialcategories by which people could classify themselves, the last of which, "unspecified/other" drew negligible responses, and these results were omitted.[3] The 2010 midyear estimated figures for the other categories were African at 78.4%, White at 10.2%, Coloured at 8.8%, Asian at 2.6%.[4] The first census in South Africa in 1911 showed that whites made up 22% of the population; it declined to 16% in 1980.[5]
