Asians have now taken over Latinos as the largest group of new arrivals every year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2010, 36% of new immigrants were Asians compared to 31% for Hispanics, according to a report released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center.<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s a significant change from a decade ago, when 19% of immigrants were Asians and 59% were Hispanics.<\/p>\n

If the trends continue, Asian-Americans will play greater roles in shaping American society and perhaps<\/strong>, more significantly in an election year, they will have an impact at the polls.<\/p>\n

Pew’s exhaustive new report on Asian-Americans found important differences between Asian-Americans and other population groups in America.<\/strong> It also shed light on the diversity among Asian-Americans, who sometimes cringe at the broadness of the category that covers every country of origin from Afghanistan to South Korea.<\/p>\n

The Pew survey showed that across the board, Asian-Americans are more satisfied than any other Americans with their lives<\/strong>, finances and direction of the country.<\/p>\n

They also place more value on traditional marriage, family and parenthood and usually possess a strong work ethic.<\/p>\n

Nearly seven in 10 respondents said people could get ahead if they are willing to work hard. And 93% of Asian-Americans describe people of their origin as “very hard-working,” whereas only 57% said the same about Americans as a whole.<\/p>\n

Asian-Americans also attain college degrees (61%) at about double the rate of recent non-Asian immigrants (30%)<\/strong>, Pew found.<\/p>\n

However, some Asian-Americans recognize that they may go overboard in stressing hard work.<\/p>\n

As a whole, Pew found Asian median income and household wealth exceeded average Americans.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Asian median annual household income is $66,000 versus $49,800 for all Americans.<\/strong><\/p>\n
