Colorado
Sallet reports that by 1920, there were 16,000 Evangelical and 3,500 Catholic Volga German immigrants of the first and second generation settled in Colorado. In 1970, descendants of the Germans from Russia were the second largest ethnic group in Colorado, exceeded only by Spanish-speaking people.
