The paper highlights key demographic trends and settlement patterns of Asian New Yorkers using sources including Census and Immigration and Naturalization Service’s data. Based on these patterns underscoring dramatic growth and diversity, and the settlement of Asians in “global” neighborhoods, the paper discusses findings based on a recent community survey conducted with the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund. The survey findings highlight common concerns and issues which inform a community-based policy and research agenda for Asian Americans in NYC.
