Differences of European ancestry between of Mexico and Peru

[samario]

And Los Altos and Nuevo Leon have a lot of whites. Same with Antioquia, western Puerto Rico, Venezuela and North East Santiago. Argentina, Uruguay, Cuba and Brazil are obviously the whitest. Peru is just Indian. I wonder why it is so Indian when Mexico had a large indigenous population as well

Not just Antioquia, many departments in Colombia have a similar ethnic breakdown.

Their white colonies lived an aparthaid southern african style, thats why even today peruvians whites live far from the native majorities by building their houses in the beaches.

Really? I thought that the conquistadors and various migrants mixed with the natives en masse. Interesting. But compared to most of Latin America Peru is VERY Indian. I think that Peru was one of the most popular destinations for Spaniards to migrate to. Whatever the case, Peru looks like an Indian reservation compared to Argentina, Uruguay, Cuba, South/Southeast Brazil and Vitacura and Lo Barnechea, regions with many pure whites.

I saw a few genetic studies, and even the Santander region is significantly less white than Antioquia. The average ancestry might be similar, but whites have a MUCH lower representation in the Santanders.

Eso es la verdad pero acomplejadsos como tu y INCAl que afuerzas hacen pensar que Mexico y Perus son super naciones gemelas , lo unico gemelo es lo prehispanico..

Ustedes se parecen a los ecuatorianos a lo mucho y eso es que son mas blancos que ustedes.

Son menos blancos que Ecuatorianos

Costa Rica could also be included on that list imo. Some sources says that they have around 65% of Euro population.

Only the Central Valley reach +60/65%.
The country as whole has 56/59%.
I lived 14 years there and my wife is from there, I know well the case.

So, Costa Rica is on pair with Paraguay, Colombia and Venezuela.

No, they are mostly mestizo, harnizo and castizo. They are white compared to other central American populations. Their definition of white is comparable to that of Chile, where the bar is low due to indigenous ancestry being easier to bleach.

I think only Paraguay, their criollo population is low, but they have many castizos

There are a good % of castizos, yes, but very low % of proper criollos.
I think in Colombia and Venezuela there are more.
CR is quite more homogeneous than those cases.

CR is not comparable at all with Uruguay / Argentina.
