Some communities such as Fremont, Milpitas and Cupertino are now majority Asian American.
“Today we’re receiving about three times as many immigrants from Asia as from Latin America (including Mexico), ” said Hans Johnson of the California Public Policy Institute in San Francisco. “And this of course reflects what’s driving them here which is job opportunities and especially job opportunities in high tech.”
Most coming here are educated with over half having bachelor’s degrees.
You can see what some of the new arrivals are saying about this trend on KTVU.
