Demographics
In general, Chinatowns are not necessarily the locations where significant Chinese populations occur as some are defunct and some are merely historical, such as the one in Washington, D.C.
The cities with the five highest Chinese American populations, with New York City comprising over half of the combined total, according to the 2010 United States Census, are as follows:
- New York City (486,463)
- San Francisco (172,181)
- Los Angeles (66,782)
- San Jose (63,434)
- Chicago (43,228)
