Order (grammar)
Hi, there
Which of these are right?
“As late as the 1990s, nearly 90 percent of suburban whites lived in communities with non-white populations less than one percent." or "As late as the 1990s, nearly 90 percent of suburban whites lived in communities with less than one percent non-white populations"?
Does "less than one percent" goes before or after "non-white populations"? which of THESE sentences is right?
Thank you!

The second sentence is correct. Also I would say "suburban whites HAVE lived" since it's an continuous/ongoing condition.
