  • Chinese Immigration and Its Implications on Urban Management in Los Angeles
    Chen X. CHINESE IMMIGRATION AND ITS IMPLICATIONS ON URBAN MANAGEMENT IN LOS ANGELES CHINESE IMMIGRATION AND ITS IMPLICATIONS ON URBAN MANAGEMENT IN LOS ANGELES Xueming CHEN Virginia Commonwealth University ement 923 West Franklin Street, Richmond, VA 23284, United States of America [email protected] Abstract This paper reviews the Chinese immigration history in Los Angeles, with Chinatown representing its urbanization process and San Gabriel Valley representing its suburbanization process. These two processes are distinct and have different impacting factors. This empirical study also compares similarities and differences of the urban development patterns between the Chinese Americans and the mainstream white Americans. Furthermore, the paper examines the implications of Chinese immigration on local urban management from political, cultural, and socioeconomic aspects. Keywords: urbanization, suburbanization, Los Angeles, Chinatown, San Gabriel Valley. 1. Introduction Los Angeles County is the most populous, multi-ethnic county in the United States (U.S.) with an existing total population exceeding 10 million. Of all the U.S. counties, Los Angeles County has most Chinese American population. In the year 2000, the County’s total Chinese American population Number 4(13) / November 2009 amounted to 377,301, which was 33.6% and 15.6% of all Chinese American population living in California (1,122,187) and U.S. (2,422,970), respectively (Source: http://www.ameredia.com/resources/demographics/chinese.html). Therefore, examining Chinese Americans’ urban development patterns in Los Angeles clearly has its national significance. A good urban management requires a clear understanding about its population, including ethnic population. Theoretical Empirical and Researches in Urban Manag With the globalization trend and emergence of China, Chinese Americans will play an ever important role in future American urbanmanagement, economy and politics.

  • Chinatown: a Taste of China in New York City
    Chinatown: A Taste of China in New York City Historical Overview Chinatown in New York City was the second Chinatown created after the one made in San Francisco, California. Similar to the first one, Chinatown was originally a place for Chinese immigrants to come to after getting off their long journey on the ships. Originally the Chinese immigrants came to the West in hopes of getting a quick fortune from the Gold Rush or earning money from working on the Transcontinental Railroad. However, they soon realized that there was no potential to obtain wealth or to gain a job since the railroad was completed. They began to work for low wages at textile or cigarette making factories. However, since these immigrants were working at drastically lower prices, Americans were unable to get a job. This caused tension to grow and the Chinese faced increasing discrimination and violence (Waxman par.2-4). To escape these hardships, a majority of Chinese immigrants began to move towards the East Coast. These immigrants typically lived in the slums of the Five Points and the boundary of New York. By staying together, they would be able to support each other and separate themselves from the rest of society to live their own lives. As a result of not assimilating and stealing jobs, the U.S. government enacted the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. This diminished the number of Chinese immigrants who could come to the United States unless they had a special permit to enter. This caused the Chinese immigrants to become devastated because they could not bring their family relatives or friends to join them in the United States.

  • Chinatown Then and Now.Pdf
    Bethany Y. Li Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF) CHINATOWN 99 Hudson St, 12th Fl THEN AND NOW New York, NY 10013 tel: 212 966 5932 fax: 212 966 4303 email: [email protected] a snapshot of new york’s chinatown Chinatown: Then & Now A Snapshot of New York’s Chinatown Introduction The mention of “Chinatown” evokes many images. But for decades, Chinatown has meant home for immigrant families. Chinatown residents rely on networks of friends and relatives in the community and on affordable food and goods in nearby stores. Workers depend on jobs they find in the neighborhood and from employment agencies centered in these communities. Yet as land use struggles change downtown areas across the United States, Chinatowns are becoming increasingly destabilized as their future as sustainable low-income immigrant communities is threatened. The Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF) embarked on a three-city study of Chinatowns in Boston, New York, and Philadelphia to determine the current state of Chinatowns. Whereas Chinatowns used to be disfavored places to live and dumping grounds for undesirable uses, luxury and institutional developers began targeting these previously shunned areas in the 1980s and 1990s for more luxury uses including high-end condominiums and stadiums. For decades, residents, workers, small business owners, and community organizations have fought against development that threatens to weaken immigrant networks and resources in these neighborhoods. In collaboration with these community partners, academic institutions, and hundreds of volunteers, AALDEF spent a year recording block by block and lot by lot the existing land uses in Boston, New York, and Philadelphia’s Chinatown and surrounding immigrant areas.

  • Miss Chinatown USA Pays Us a Visit Houston Stars in Mao's Last Dancer
    F ASHION LIFESTYLE ART ENTERTAINMENT SEPTEMBER 2010 FREE Miss Chinatown USA Pays Us a Visit Houston Stars in Mao’s Last Dancer Bistro Lancaster Remains a Landmark Old World vs. New World Wine yellowmags.com FROM THE EDITOR IN CHIEF August was a month filled with beauty. I chatted with the reigning Miss Chinatown USA, Miss Crystal Lee, while she was in town to attend the Miss Chinatown Houston pageant. This year marked the 40th anniversary of the pageant and a majority of the past beauty queens appeared on stage to mark the momentous occasion. The newly crowned Houston queen, Miss Joy Le, will represent Houston in the national competition in San Francisco next February. Congratulations! New York City has been getting a lot of press recently in connection with the proposed mosque near Ground Zero. Last year, the city was the center of attention because of the country’s economic woes and the big bonuses that gushed from the big Wall Street firms. We decided to focus on New York, too, but our sights were on the sites to see. There are many that have gone ignored by the mainstream media but which are a lot more interesting and fun (and certainly, much less controversial). It was a big month for the Houston art community, especially for those who love ballet. Li Cunxin was in town to promote the opening of Mao’s Last Dancer, the exquisite new movie based on his best selling autobiography that chronicled his life from provincial China to the stages of Houston’s Wortham Center and Jones Hall.

  • A WAY to CHINESE IMMIGRANTS' AMERICAN DREAM B
    ABSTRACT SPATIAL TRANSFORMATION AND INTERNAL MIGRATION AMONG CHINESE ETHNOBURBS -A WAY TO CHINESE IMMIGRANTS’ AMERICAN DREAM by Wan Yu This paper aims to analyze the spatial transformation of Chinese American’s “ethnoburbs” and the migration trends among them. With well-established Chinese Americans moving out of the old “ethnoburbs” to the new ones and new immigrants filling into the old “ethnoburbs”, the population of both old and new “ethnoburbs” is increasing, but the internal migration flows reflect the spatial transformation of the Chinese suburban communities. Using a comparative analysis of community landscape, spatial patterns, socioeconomic status of residents, and public services between the old “suburban Chinatown” Monterey Park and the newly thriving Chinese “ethnoburb” Rowland Heights in suburban Los Angeles, this paper examines the disparities and connections between old and new Chinese “ethnoburbs”. The transformation of Chinese “ethnoburbs” and internal migration flows among them reflect a way to achieve Chinese immigrants’ American Dream.
