Lots of Criollos de Vuelta. Not quite as white as Argentina, Uruguay, Cuba, South/Southeast Brazil and Northeast Santiago, but still very European, no doubt. I think the Paisa Region, as well as Los Altos, are probably the most European colonial stock regions in Latin America, after Minas Gerais.

Really? Most look very Mestizo to me (as should be expected).

Yes, most are mestizo, of course. But there is a higher than average amount of whites, albeit a minority, just like in Chile (which I think the Paisa region is the closest to in terms of genetics.)

I agree, good observations
Minas Gerais is basically a piece of Portugal in Brazil, a lot of colonial construcions, strong Iberian faces, very colonial portuguese musics and etc . .
I never was in Minas but its a wonderful place by what the ppl say and the mineiros which i meet were amazing persons

Has the racial composition of South and Central American countries changed over the last century? I have the feeling they were much whiter in the past.

That's the thing about feeling you know something: it's not based on anything. Central America has never been much of a 'White' area. Although you have fools who think Costa Rica was much Whiter than the rest of Central America because it was much more politically stable (the reason is that the country doesn't have a military).

As for South America, it would need a more in-depth look at the demographic growth of particular groups, immigration (for example, immigration from Paraguay to Argentina), etc.

In some areas yes. In Antioquia, specifically Medellin, there is currently an internal migration from other parts of Colombia. In Argentina and Brazil there is also internal migration in white regions that has taken place (however mainly in the urban areas, the countryside is still very white.) Many white Venezuelans have also left the country due to communism. The same with Cubans, but in this case it is highly exagerrated, only Havana became significantly less white. By the way, you're Maltese? That's cool man, are you from the main island or Gozo?

Well, Costa Rica is significantly whiter than other Central American countries, genetic studies have shown this. (They're not white white though, they have a significant castizo minority)
