Why do Asians live in the western United States?

1. Labor export. The western development of the United States needs a lot of labor. Some China people joined the ranks because they were cheated or lost their land. They mined gold and built railways. Look at the name of San Francisco and you will know the scene of gold panning here 100 years ago.

2. Geographical factors. Early American immigrants mostly came from Europe and crossed the Atlantic Ocean, so they concentrated on the east coast, crossed the Pacific Ocean from China to the United States and settled on the west coast.

People in China like to get together. Most of the early immigrants were separated by language and culture, and it was easier to concentrate, as evidenced by Chinatown.

4. Be excluded. Early Chinese immigrants were hard-working and had an advantage in the competition for labor opportunities, and were hostile to other ethnic groups. The American government has also introduced the Chinese Exclusion Act, which is not conducive to the flow of Chinese objectively.
