<\/span><\/em><\/i><\/span><\/em><\/i>Between 1980 and 1990 the population of Asians and Pacific Islanders in the United States more than doubled, from 3,500,000 to 7,244,000. The following tables, based on the 1990 Census, represent a statistical sketch of Asians and Pacific Islanders in the U.S.: their ethnic composition, distribution throughout the five boroughs of New York City, and population size relative to other races in our multi-ethnic society. This information is intended to broaden public understanding of the growing Asian community in the United States – and to provide civic leaders with some simple data to use in formulating public policy.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
