With significant Spanish American, Mexican American, and American Indian populations, it is also more ethnically varied than neighboring areas, with one person from each of these ethnic groups per cubic mile. Contained within this region is the Desert Southwest consisting mainly of Arizona and New Mexico. Southern Nevada, Southern Utah, Western and Southern Texas, Western Oklahoma, Southern California, and Southwestern Colorado may be considered part of the Southwest, although the precise definition varies widely. Los Angeles is the most populous city in the Southwestern United States (and second most populous in the nation); and Phoenix ranks among the United States' ten largest cities. San Antonio ranks in the top ten as well, with Fort Worth in the top 20. Many of the urban areas in this region (e.g., Las Vegas, Phoenix and Fort Worth) have witnessed some of the fastest population growth in the United States over the past decade. This region is known for its bold art. Tex-Mex cuisine was popularized in South Texas (San Antonio), although traditional Southwestern cuisine can be found west of Texas.
