Least SSA admixed Caribbean region of Latin America?

[Carlito's Way]

why would you put Quintana Roo knowing that it will be the most voted since they are the least SSA groups

[CostaRicaBall]

Limon province is 16%-32% SSA depending of the study. Is least SSA than Dominican Republic and its more than evident. When people talk about the province talk about the cantón, but the cantón has 60k habitants itself. Also, according to the 2011 census 50k of people of 300k inhabitants self report as black and those scores 88% SSA. Limon should be blacker than Puerto Rico/Cuba but less black than Dominica Republic.

I have the impression that Nicaraguan Caribbean is more African influenced than Limón.
First because there are not only Jamaican descendants but also garifunas.
But apart of that in Limón you can find a lot of people that is not African influenced at all while in Bluefields, Corn Island, San Juan del Norte, etc., practically almost all inhabitants are African influenced.
May be in that area the African ancestry could be higher than in RD, although in RD the European ancestry is higher while in that nicaraguan area many individuals have far more amerindian influenced than dominicans (miskito).



Of course practically all whites in the video are turista.

Interesting. I really dont know so much about caribbean Nicaragua, but if your perception is real maybe is because caribbean Nicaragua is more isolated than general population(I read that is harder to reach that place than Limon). Also, zambos mosquitos are there since colonial times I guess, blacks in Limon are more recent so SSA admixed people in Bluefields could be more regular. What I dont know is Honduras because self reported census shows that 95% are mestizos BUT when you see the national soccer team of Honduras many look full black(something that not happen in Nicaragua, maybe in their national baseball team or baseball players but even them are more mixed than hondurans soccer players), also many people outside(in places like US) said that they met many black hondurans. In those caravans that went and go to Mexico and US many of them display african traits, but as regular nicaraguans. Honduras is so weird.

I voted for Venezuela and PR, but forgot to vote also for Quintana Roo.

I just said that I forgot to also vote for Quintana Roo, because I didn't thoroughly review all the poll options before voting.

And Venezuela (as a whole) and PR are far less African than any Caribbean island (Cuba has lots of whites/near whites, but also a lot more full/heavily African people than Venezuela and Puerto Rico, proportionally speaking) and than most coastal lands around the Caribbean, exception made of Quintana Roo, and the Colombian Atlantic coast between Barranquilla and the Guajira peninsula.

Also, a HUGE percentage of Venezuelans would not be seen as black in Quintana Roo. There are many many Venezuelans who are mestizos or at least have a very mestizoid look, and LOTS of mestizo-leaning and Euro-leaning Venezuelan pardos, who though they might show some african traits, they still look predominately mestizoid, or somewhat Euro-leaning, and would be far from being considered black. That, without counting the significant percentage of Venezuelans who are whites/near whites or Euro-mestizos. Venezuela is not like Dominican Republic.

PS: Before you mention it, Veracruz is not in the Caribbean coast but in the gulf of Mexico.

Quintana Roo (Mexico).

Quintana Roo (Mexico).

Also, the Colombian Atlantic coast between Rio Hacha and the Venezuelan border, and the Venezuelan coastal state of Nueva Esparta (perhaps also Falcon and most of Zulia state) are not more African than Quintana Roo. Let alone the Venezuelan Andes, and most of the interior of Venezuela.

Honestly, I don't know much about the genetics of these regions, but when I saw a Mexican region on the poll, I voted for it.
