The information is based on the 2010 U.S. Census Redistricting Data.<\/p>\n<p>With data reported from 27 states (or a little more than half of the state-level data at the time of reporting),<strong> the Asian population is already seeing significant growth that far outpaces the total United States population by huge margins<\/strong>.  All 27 states showed double or even triple-digit growth in their Asian populations.  The top five states with the highest increases in the Asian population compared to ten years ago are: Nevada, up 116 percent; North Carolina, up 85 percent; Delaware up 78 percent; Arkansas, up 77 percent; and Indiana up 74 percent. <\/p>\n<p>Among the 27 states with their local-level data released so far, <strong>the top 10 states with the highest number of Asians<\/strong> (in order from highest to lowest) are California; Texas; New Jersey; Hawaii; Illinois; Washington; Virginia; Maryland; North Carolina, and Nevada.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other surprising statistics:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>* In some of the larger states like California, Texas, New Jersey and Illinois, the Asian population growth is outpacing the much celebrated Hispanic growth.<br \/>\n* The same trend is observed in most of the key counties in the Los Angeles and San Francisco DMAs (Designated Market Area).<br \/>\n* Asians accounted for 72 percent of the growth in New Jersey&#8217;s population and 47 percent of the growth in Illinois&#8217; population.<br \/>\n* California saw a staggering increase of more than 1.4 million Asians, and Texas saw an increase of nearly half-a-million Asians.<\/p>\n<p>Nita Song, 3AF President, said, &#8220;We are excited to see the Census data confirm what the 3AF has known all along&#8211;that the Asian segment is an increasingly important consumer group that is tough to ignore.  It is a segment that has the potential to drive incremental sales and deliver strong results, and we have seen a growing number of new marketers focus on this segment in the past year.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>Alice Lee, Vice President of LA-18 and a member of the 3AF Board of Directors,  added, &#8220;We will be anxiously awaiting the rest of the state-level data which should be released by early April.  Also, by the 3AF conference in May, we hope to see the bulk of the demographic profile data.&#8221;<br \/>\n<!--break--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THIS IS MAJOR INFORMATION!
