Top Asian-American Ethnicity by State

[jimrtex]

With the exception of Hmong and South Asian groups, California I presume has the largest number for each Asian group.

New York is first among Bangladeshi, Pakistani, and Malaysian
California is first for Hmong and Indian

Red: Chinese
Green: Filipino
Blue: Indian
Pink: Vietnamese
Turquoise: Hmong

I'm surprised that the West has more Filipinos than Chinese. 

Lots of changes based on 2010-2014 ACS

Red: Chinese
Green: Filipino
Blue: Indian
Pink: Vietnamese

I actually made a map of this by congressional district a few months ago:



Going by jimetex's map, the west is likely more dominated by Indians and Chinese than it was a few years ago.

These are the largest concentrations by congressional district. The percentage classification is based on 700,000 persons in CD.

50%

Total   California-17 369,707 (Fremont-Newark to Sunnyvale-Cupertino)

20%+

Chinese, except Taiwanese California-27 162,744 (Pasadena-Alhambra-Monterey Park)

15%+

Japanese Hawaii-1 125,941 (Honolulu)
Filipino Hawaii-1 114,413 (Honolulu)
Asian Indian California-17 112,659 (Fremont-Newark to Sunnyvale-Cupertino)

10%+

Vietnamese California-19 79,520 (San Jose and points south)

5%+

Korean California-34 57,927 (Central Los Angeles, including Koreatown)
Hmong Minnesota-4 38,817 (St. Paul)

2%+

Other Asian Hawaii-1 30,817 (Honolulu)
Cambodian California-47 16,304 (Long Beach-Westminster-Cypress)
Bangladeshi New York-14 14,119 (Northern Queens-Southeastern Bronx)

1%+

Pakistani Virginia-11 10,671 (Herndon-Reston-Vienna-Fairfax-Woodbury)
Laotian California-6 9,709 (Sacramento)
Taiwanese California-39 7,671 (Buena Park-La Habra-Brea-Yorba Linda-Hacienda Heights-Rowland Heights-Walnut; I'd guess in the southern part based on there being more total population)

<1%

Thai California-29 4,111 (Eastern San Fernando Valley)
Indonesian California-31 3,232 (San Bernardino-Redlands-Rancho Cucamonga)
Other Asian, not specified Virginia-8 2,304 (Arlington, Alexandria, eastern Fairfax)
Sri Lankan California-30 1,359 (Western San Fernando Valley)
Malaysian New York-6 922 (Central Queens)

I'm guessing that the Other Asian for Hawaii-1 are mainly those who gave multiple Asian responses.

MULTIPLE ASIAN RESPONSES
BHUTANESE
BURMESE
OKINAWAN
MONGOLIAN
INDO-CHINESE
IWO JIMAN
MALDIVIAN
NEPALESE
SINGAPOREAN

While these are the responses for Virginia-8 (i.e. incomplete response).

OTHER ASIAN (CHECKBOX)
