Thank you for presenting factual information for the different ethnicities in the U.S. I have an observation from living and working in 4 western states. I was born in the southern California megalopolis, then went to college out of state and then entered a career that allowed me to transfer all over the U.S. and travel on temporary assignments and training in 8 other states. At one point I was living in New Mexico, which is not very diverse, you have Anglos, Native Americans and at the time, about 70% of New Mexico was Hispanic, with most of the Anglos in Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Las Cruces and eastern New Mexico. The latter is really the west portion of Texas. Anyhow, one day a van full of Asians came into our ranger station and I realized I missed the diversity of California. A couple years later I was applying for many jobs in the western U.S. and was offered a job in eastern California. We moved to a small town in this region in the early 1980's. We received TV from the Sacramento area. A lot of Vietnamese refugees settled in the Central Valley after the war ended in 1975. A large portion of those did not speak English when they arrived. In 1982 TV news presented many stories of the Valedictorians of graduating classes. A large number of these were Vietnamese. They arrived not speaking English and just 7 years later their children were graduating at the top of their classes in high school. That is testament to their ability to roll up their sleeves and work very hard. I was amazed. In the 80's I saw a lot of Asians backpacking in the wilderness of the Sierra Nevada, which is contrary to the statistics you presented. This likely reflects that people of all cultures are spending too much time in front of a computer screen or their smartphones. In my U.S. Forest Service career I had the pleasure of having many Asian coworkers, all who were devoted to environmental/natural resource issues. I continue to observe that many fly fisherman are Asian. This is a specialty group in fishing hobby, who possess more skill than the others. I worked in the field with a high public contact workload and spoke with Asians camping, fishing, sightseeing and backpacking, this in the late 1980's to 2005 when I retired.

[@KannanH1990]

Hi Nick! Good content! Just want to point out that some of the stats shown for Asian Americans includes people from the whole of Asia, not just East Asians. For example, it is mentioned in the video that Redmond WA has 34% Asian population. I am pretty sure that includes all Asians (including Indians) and not just East Asians. Keep up the good work! :)

I'm surprised Texas wasn't on this list. Vietnamese is the third most commonly spoken language in the state of Texas. but then again, this list only appeared to include those of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean heritage, totally not including those southeast nations like Vietnam and the Philippines

[@Off_the_clock_astrophysicist]

In the video, we do learn that the majority of Asians in a town of Virginia are Vietnamese. And I also think he specifically mentions the fact that in Alaska, there are a lot of Philippinos. While in a 10 minute video, you are only going to hit highlights, he is pretty thorough. Regarding Texas, it probably means that Vietnamese is a distant third to Spanish, and remains below the percentage of Asians found in Alaska (which is number 10 on the list).

[@howellwong11]

This was because a lot of Vietnamese were shrimp fisherman. Most Vietnamese settled in Garden Grove, CA.

[@secrets.295]

Texas has around 5.4% Asians (All Asian races). The 10th most Asian state in this list is Alaska at 6%. So Texas couldn't make the cut. I am sure in large cities like Dallas, Austin the Asian populations are bigger. But we are talking about the overall population in the state. This list does include all Asian races from Indians to Chinese to Filipinos, etc. There is no way California can reach 14% Asian population if it only includes North East Asian descent.

[@myukirob2705]

Nick said that there's a lot of Filipino in Alaska and Hawaii but I think there's a lot more in California...I saw them..
