Indians ace immigrant groups in America TIMES NEWS NETWORK[ THURSDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2004 10:19:49 PM ] WASHINGTON: Indians are the best-educated and highest-earning people among all major ethnic groups in the United States, including native-born Americans. They are also the youngest and most likely to be white collar professionals. These are among the bragging rights conferred in a new study "We The People: Asian Americans in the United States" released on Wednesday by the US Census Bureau. Based on the year 2000 census, the report provides a handsome snapshot of the fastest growing immigrant community in the United States. According to the study, Asian Indians (so termed to distinguish them from American Indians) numbered 1.65 million in the 2000 census when counted alone, and 1.85 million in combination with other races (say mixed with Americans or Africans). About 75 per cent of Indians are foreign-born and 24.6 per cent are US-born. In comparison, and reflecting their older immigrant status, nearly 60 per cent of Japanese in America are US born. Around 54 per cent of Indians entered the US after 1990, marking the '90s as the boom decade for Indian immigration. ....... timesofindia.indiatimes.com
