Are you curious where the Chinese diaspora across the United States is mainly concentrated?
The U.S. Census Bureau has recently released the latest ethnic census and community survey data. The results show that if people with mixed-race and multi-ethnic backgrounds are included in the full-scope calculation, the total Chinese population in the U.S. has already exceeded 5.5 million.
In terms of regional distribution, nearly half of Chinese people choose to settle in California and New York. California ranks first nationwide in terms of the number of Chinese residents, and its total Chinese population is more than twice that of New York.
Below, we have compiled the top ten U.S. states by Chinese population, along with the corresponding per-capita disposable income levels in each (unit: USD):
# State Name Population Income Level
1 California 1.97 million 77,000
