The black population is essentially unchanged from 50 years ago. Though it is true Houston got Katrina refugees. It is just probably not very significant.

The place is deemed so diverse because of the relative balance of white, Hispanic, Asian, and black populations. In the case of Hispanics many came directly across the border, not from California.

And though you're right about the strong job market and Turner all of this just shows that even a supposed multicultural showcase like Houston shows signs of being a failboat.
