The Top 10 U.S States most in need of Spanish English interpreters

  

The United States has over 56 million Hispanic residents. This makes up approximately 17.6% of the national population. About 40 years ago, the Hispanic population was only 14.8 million people in the country. As you can see, there has been a significant shift in Hispanic immigration throughout those years. 

 

There has never been a greater demand for Spanish to English interpreters than right now. There are so many businesses, organizations and agencies like Languagers which must communicate with native Spanish speaking people every day. Unless there are bilingual employees available to interpret the language, a Spanish to English interpreter will be required for communication purposes.

  

 

Of course, some U.S States have a greater number of Spanish speakers compared to other States. That means more interpreters are needed so that native English speakers can communicate with the native Spanish speakers.  

 

Below are the top 10 U.S States that need Spanish-English interpreters the most.  

 

1) California 

 

California is the most populated state in the United States. It is also the state with the most Hispanic people living in it. Since California is so close to Mexico, many immigrants from Mexico, Central America, and South America end up living in the state.  

 

Statistics show that over 15 million Hispanics live in California. That is about 38.8% of its total population. Naturally, they need the most Spanish to English interpreters because many Spanish speakers know very little English.  

 

2) Texas 

 

Texas is the second most populated state. It has over 10.5 million Hispanic residents out of a total population of 27.5 million people. That is also about 38.8% of its total population. Texas is another state that demands Spanish to English interpreters because it has a strong Hispanic immigrant population.  

 

3) Florida 

 

Florida is the Sunshine State. It has about 5 million Hispanic residents out of a total population of 20.3 million people. That is about 24.5% of its total population. The strong Cuban population attributes to the growing Spanish speaking population in the southern region of the state.  

 

4) New York 

 

New York is a very diverse state. It has over 3.7 million Hispanic residents out of a total population of 20 million people. That is about 18.8% of its total population. There is much easier access to interpreters in New York because many of them live in the city.  

 

5) Illinois 

 

Illinois has over 2.2 million Hispanic residents out of a total population of 13 million people. That is about 16.9% of its total population. A significant portion of the Hispanic population is found in Chicago. Many certified interpreters live there too.  

 

6) Arizona 

 

Arizona has over 2.1 million Hispanic residents out of a total population of 6.9 million people. That is about 30.7% of its total population, which means one-third of the state is Hispanic. Again, its proximity to the U.S. southern border is why the growing Hispanic population in the state.  

 

7) New Jersey 

 

New Jersey has over 1.77 million Hispanic residents out of a total population of 9 million people. That is about 19.7% of its total population. You’ll find Hispanic residents living everywhere, from Jersey City to Newark.  

 

8) Colorado 

 

Colorado has over 1.2 million Hispanic residents out of a total population of 5.5 million people. That is about 21.4% of its total population.  

 

9) New Mexico 

 

New Mexico has over one million Hispanic residents out of a total population of two million people. That is about 48.1% of its total population, which means Hispanic residents make up half the state.  

 

10) Georgia 

 

Georgia has over 950,000 Hispanic residents out of a total population of 10.3 million people. That is about 9.3% of its total population.  

 

What Is Over The Phone Interpreting And How Does It Work?

Interpreter phone services are the go-to option for business owners and individuals who are in urgent, often last-minute need, of direct interpretation assistance. 

At Languagers, we are a leading U.S. interpreter agency which makes it possible to connect with phone interpreting professionals in seconds. Literally, all you need to do is pick up the phone and tell us what language you need translating.  

Here, we’ll look at the basics of how our telephone interpreting service works. 

What is Over the Phone Interpreting?

At its most basic, phone interpreting takes the form of a 3-way telephone conference call between two individuals who speak different languages, and a third-party interpreter. 

As a rule, it is always advisable to schedule conference calls with interpreters in advance if possible. However, this isn’t essential. This is also why at Languagers, we are the go-to phone interpreting agency in the U.S. for everyone from business owners to medical professionals who require instant access to interpreters.

How Does Languagers' Telephone Interpreter Service Work?

At Languagers, how our telephone interpreter service works is simple. When you need to hire an interpreter, you simply call +1 (800) 527-3001 and let us know what language you need interpreting.  

When you call or contact our team, we will also inquire about the context of your call. This is so that we can match you with an interpreter who has experience in your industry. 

• At Languagers, we can supply on-demand phone interpreters to everyday business owners, and professionals in specific industries like the medical industry. 

• As soon as you let us know what language you need help interpreting, we will identify one of 6,000 certified interpreters best suited to jump on a call with you immediately.   

• Once we have identified the right interpreter to pair you with, we will set up a conference call between you, your interpreter, and your client or business associate. 

As well as setting up conference calls, our team at Languagers can also pair you instantly with an interpreter who can come on the line and interpret on behalf of you to a person at your location.  

This means that if you are a medical professional already with a patient or a business owner trying to communicate with a customer in person, you can do so instantly simply by calling our 24/7 helpline. 

How Much Does Phone Interpreting Cost?

At Languagers, we work quickly to pair you with phone interpreters within seconds of your call. We also pride ourselves on being able to offer the best phone interpreting rates applicable anywhere in the United States. However, what rate might apply to your call will depend on the overall context of your conversation. 

Connecting you with specialized legal and medical translators will typically command a higher call rate than that applicable when connecting you with the likes of a conversational Spanish translator. In every case, though, we will provide you with a full quote prior to calls commencing.
