there goes the neighborhood

South Bay, represent! Last year, Santa Clara County's population gained more Asians than any other county in the United States. Population estimates released last week by the U.S. Census Bureau say Santa Clara County gained nearly 18,000 new Asian residents in 2006, a 3.3 percent increase from 2005, and a 20 percent jump this decade. It makes for some very interesting changes and opportunities in the community: Santa Clara County adding Asians at nation's fastest pace

On the other side of the country... Asians were the only major racial or ethnic group to record population gains in every county in the New York metropolitan region since 2005. And since 2000, New York has recorded the greatest increase in Asians (309,773) of any metropolitan area: Asians Make Broad Gains in New York Population. You hear that, America? We're growing. And we're coming to get you! Muhahahahahahahahahaha!
