Every state within the United States allows a landlord to collect a security deposit from a tenant. The maximum amount of security you can collect depends on the location of your rental property. Some states, such as Illinois and Texas, have no limit on the maximum amount of security deposit you can collect. Other states allow landlords to charge tenants a maximum of anywhere from one to three monthsâ rent as a security deposit.
2015 Black Population: 46.3 million, 14.4% of USA. In 2015 US Census Bureau estimated 46,282,080 African Americans in the United States meaning that 14.3% of the total American population of 321.4 Million is Black. This includes those who identify as âBlack Onlyâ and as âBlack in combination with another raceâ.
However, much of the recent growth in the size of the black immigrant population has been fueled by African immigration. Between 2000 and 2013, the number of black African immigrants living in the U.S. rose 137%, from 574,000 to 1.4 million. Africans now make up 36% of the total foreign-born black population, up from 24% in 2000 and just 7% in 1980.
