CHICAGO - Aurora has been named one of the most diverse cities in America, according to a recent national study.
Personal finance website Wallethub profiled the demographics of over 500 of the largest cities in the nation based on five categories - cultural, religious, household, socioeconomic and economic.
The study found that the west suburban Chicago city was the fourteenth-most diverse city in the United States. One of the biggest assets of Aurora is our diversity, said Aurora Mayor Richard C. Irvin. But in order to turn the asset into strength, diversity alone isn t enough. We must focus on equity, inclusion, and belonging across the board.
