The formation process of Chinatown in New York

The earliest Chinatown in new york was formed in 1890. 1848, three Taishan people, two men and one woman, arrived in the United States on the sailing boat "You Ying", which was the first batch of China people who immigrated to the United States. By 185 1, the number of Wuyi people who moved to the west coast of the United States had reached 25,000, and it has increased year by year since then. These ancestors did jobs in mines, farms, cigar factories and timber factories that white Americans refused to do. During the period of 1880, there was an economic crisis in the United States, and a large number of whites were unemployed, while China people had jobs. As a result, white people are jealous of China people and accuse China people of stealing their jobs for no reason. As a result, California passed the Chinese Exclusion Act, and the excluded and persecuted China people moved to the east coast of the United States. The earliest Chinese who entered new york settled in Mott Street and Park Street in the southeast of Lower Manhattan. With the gradual increase of population, 1890 formed Chinatown. The English name of Chinatown is Chinatown, which translates to China City.
