Are they more or less culturally assimilated than say…new immigrant / 1st gen Chinese?
I say thing because I’ve I’ve never met an Indian in the US that doesn’t speak English but there are a drastic amount of Chinese in my neighborhood with no English language skills whatsoever. They have their own grocery stores. Their own restaurants. Own shops. Even own churches. Rare is crossover between the white community and Chinese community in any meaningful way but everyone happens to just coexist and get along.  Previous Message and this can have negative consequences. Previous Message It’s a feature, not a bug, if lots of people want to move to your country or state or town. It means you are doing something right. The problem isn’t people wanting to live there, it’s if nobody wants to live there. Previous Message
That guy obviously misunderstands what "diversity" means. IF there were white flight or another kind of driving out of the previous residents, then I'd say something's happening. What is really happening is the city is booming and a particular subset of humanity is moving in.
Good schools, low crime, housing, accessibility to jobs... what in the world would these new residents see here? /s
