== Population Figures ==

Some of the population fingures are incorrect. They do not match-up with the US. census (as the link provides). I am correcting the numbers to reflect each group's population alone or in combination (the same fromat India is in). -[[User:Emmadi|Emmadi]] 00:11, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Why is this article even here? There is no East Asian Americans or Southeast Asian Americans article. I think some Pak just wanted to associate their group with Indians. --Dangerous-Boy

There are a fair number of cultural commonalities (between North Indians and Pakistanis with regards to language (the mutually intelligible Hindi and Urdu, and Punjabi, culture, and cuisine), or between Indian Bengalis and Bangladeshis, or between Indian and Sri Lankan Tamil speakers.

And then there's the Desi identity.

A South Asian identity in America, whether you like it or not, certainly exists.
