Interracial marriages among South Africans are increasing. Coloureds are the most likely to marry outside their group, while Africans, followed by whites, are the least likely. Africans are 7 332 times more likely to marry each other than outside their group. The 1996 and 2001 census figures show that the vast majority of people are still married to someone of the same racial group.
