According to Wikipedia, mine is:

The racial makeup of the township was 92.33% White, 0.58% African American, 0.00% Native American, 5.89% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 0.43% from other races, and 0.74% from two or more races. 3.22% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.

So many f**king white people here..I barely see one asian walking around here..f**k my neighborhood. If you wanna find out, just go to wikipeda, search your town or city name, and scroll a little down until you reach "Demographics" and it should tell you the population statistics..

^ That's (Statistik's post) probably going to be around the same as mine. You should probably state your city, too, if it's not obvious. *Checks*

London, England -
It has historically been known as one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the world, and this continues in the modern day. A January 2005 survey suggested that there are:
more than 300 languages spoken and
50 non-indigenous communities with a population of more than 10,000 in London.
as of 2001 -
40% of London's population classified themselves as non-British,
with 29% classifying themselves as "non-white".

They don't give the statistics specifically for Charing Cross, just because it's a tiny little subdivision, and they hardly do any percentages for London.

About 96 % of Hong Kong's population is Chinese, the majority of which are Cantonese. Groups such as the Hakka and Teochew are also substantial. Used in government matters, Cantonese is spoken by most of the local Chinese population at home and in the office, although English is also widely understood and spoken by more than one-third of the population. Since the Handover, a new group of immigrants from mainland China have increased the ethnic diversity of the Chinese population and enhanced the development of Mandarin in the territory.

The remaining 4 % of the population is composed of non-Chinese, who form a highly visible group, despite their small numbers.

Among these is a significant South Asian population, which includes some of Hong Kong's wealthiest families. Some Nepalis residing in Hong Kong are Gurkhas, who chose to stay after their service to Britain, and their descendants. More than 15,000 Vietnamese, who came to Hong Kong as refugees, have become permanent residents, the majority of whom survive on casual work. Around 140,000 Filipinos work in Hong Kong as domestic helpers and housekeepers, often known locally as amahs, or feiyungs, with other such workers coming from Thailand and Indonesia. On Sundays and public holidays, thousands of these workers, the majority of whom are women, gather in Central to socialise. There are also a number of Europeans, North Americans, Japanese, and Koreans, largely working in Hong Kong's financial sector. The top three sources of migration to Hong Kong are the Philippines (132,770), Indonesia (95,460), and the United States (31,330).
