Demographics of Filipino Americans

Overview of the demographics of Filipino Americans

The demographics of Filipino Americans describe a heterogeneous group of people in the United States who trace their ancestry to the Philippines. As of the 2020 Census, there were 4.4 million Filipino Americans, including Multiracial Americans who were part Filipino living in the US. Filipino Americans constitute the third-largest population of Asian Americans, and the largest population of Overseas Filipinos.

The first recorded presence of Filipinos in what is now the United States dates to October 1587, with the first permanent settlement of Filipinos in present-day Louisiana in 1763. Migration of significant numbers of Filipinos to the United States did not occur until the early 20th century, when the Philippines was an overseas territory of the United States. After World War II, and until 1965, migration of Filipinos to the United States was reduced limited to primarily military and medically connected immigration. Since 1965, due to changes in immigration policy, the population of Filipino Americans has expanded significantly.

Filipino Americans can be found throughout the United States, especially in the Western United States and metropolitan areas. In California, Filipinos were initially concentrated in its Central Valley, especially in Stockton, but later shifted to Southern California and the San Francisco Bay Area. Other states with significant populations of Filipinos include: Hawaii, Texas, Washington, Nevada, Florida, and Illinois. New Jersey and the New York Metropolitan area also has a significant population of Filipinos. There are smaller populations of Filipino Americans elsewhere.

As a population, Filipino Americans are multilingual, with Tagalog being the largest non-English language being spoken. A majority of Filipino Americans are Christian, with smaller populations having other religious views. On average, Filipino Americans earn a higher average household income and achieve a higher level of education than the national average.

Due to the significant increase of Indian Americans, Filipino Americans became the third-largest Asian American ethnicity in the United States.[5] Filipino Americans who only listed Filipino alone, increased their population by 20.4% to 3,076,108, being the third largest Asian alone ethnicities behind Indian Americans, and Chinese Americans. When including multiracial Asian Americans, the total population of Filipino Americans increased by 29.9% to 4,436,992 persons, behind Chinese Americans, and Indian Americans.[4]

The Filipino American community was the second-largest Asian American group in the United States with a population of over 3.4 million as of the 2010 US Census,[6][7] making up 19.7% of Asian Americans.[8] Only Chinese Americans have a larger population among Asian Americans.[9] Not including multiracial Filipino Americans, the population of those responding as Filipino alone in the 2010 Census was 2,555,923, an increase of 38% in population from the 2000 Census.[10][11] 69% of Filipino Americans were born outside of the United States. 77% of all Filipino Americans are United States citizens.[8][12] Filipino Americans are the largest subgroup of Overseas Filipinos;[13] as of 2011, there are 1,813,597 Philippines-born immigrants living in the United States (4.5% of all immigrants in the United States), of which 65% have become naturalized U.S. citizens.[14] In 2014, there was an estimated 1.23 million second generation Filipino Americans, who had a median age of 20, yet three percent were over the age of 64.[15] Life expectancy for Filipino Americans is higher than the general population of the United States; however, survival rates of Filipino Americans diagnosed with cancer are lower than European Americans and African Americans.[16] In 2015, the United States Census Bureau American Community Survey estimated that there were over 3.8 million Filipinos in the United States.[17] In 2018, the American Community Survey estimated the population of Filipinos in the United States to be over 4 million.[18][19] In 2019, the American Community Survey estimated the population of Filipinos in the United States to be about 4.2 Million.[20]

The U.S. Census Bureau reported that the 2007 American Community Survey, identified approximately 3.1 million persons as "Filipino alone or in any combination". The census also found that about 80% of the Filipino American community are United States citizens.[21] According to a study published in 2007, 11% of single-heritage Filipinos did not mark "Asian" as their race; this number was greater among multiracial Filipinos.[22] Also in 2011, the U.S. State Department estimated the size of the Filipino American community at four million,[23] or 1.5% of the United States population. There are no official records of Filipinos who hold dual citizenship; however, during the 2000 Census data indicated that Filipino Americans had the lowest percentage of non-citizens amongst Asian Americans, at 26%.[24] Additionally, although historically there had been a larger number of Filipino American men than women, women represented 54% of the Filipino American adult population in the 2000 Census.[25]

Filipino Americans are the largest group of Overseas Filipinos, and the majority were born outside of the United States; at the same time, more than 73% are United States Citizens.[24] Among Asian Americans, Filipino Americans are the most integrated in American society, and are described by University of California, Santa Barbara Professor Pei-te Lien as being "acculturated and economically incorporated".[26] One in five is a multiracial American. Multiple languages are spoken by Filipino Americans, and the majority are Roman Catholic. A U.S. Census Bureau survey done in 2004 found that Filipino Americans had the second highest median family income amongst Asian Americans, and had a high level of educational achievement.[28]

Interracial marriage among Filipinos is common.[29] They have the largest number of interracial marriages among Asian immigrant groups in California—[30] only Japanese Americans have a higher rate nationally.[31] Compared to other Asian Americans, Filipino Americans are more likely to have a Hispanic spouse.[32] Statistically, Filipino American women are more likely to marry outside of their ethnicity (38.9%) than Filipino American men (17.6%); other Asian American populations have lower rates of marrying outside of their race than both Filipino American men and women.[33] Between 2008 and 2010, 48% of Filipino American marriages were with non-Asians.[34] It is also noted that 21.8% of Filipino Americans are multiracial, second among Asian Americans.[33][35] Depending on their parentage, multiracial Filipino Americans may refer to themselves as Mestizo, Tsinoy, Blackapino, and Mexipino.[36]

Historical settlement

Early immigration

The earliest recorded presence of Filipinos in what is now the United States is October 1587 when mariners under Spanish command landed in Morro Bay, California.[37][38] The earliest permanent Filipino American residents arrived in the Americans in 1763,[38] settling in Louisiana's bayou country.[39] They later created settlements in the Mississippi River Delta such as Saint Malo, Manila Village in Barataria Bay, Louisiana, and four others in present-day Plaquemines and Jefferson Parishes.[38][40] These early settlements were composed of sailors compelled to serve in press gangs who had escaped from duty aboard Spanish galleons. They were documented by Harper's Weekly journalist Lafcadio Hearn in 1883.[38] These settlements were the first longstanding Asian American settlements in the United States.[41] The last of these, Manila Village, survived until 1965 when it was destroyed by Hurricane Betsy.[42] An additional 2,000 were documented in New Orleans with their roots dating back to about 1806— the first being Augustin Feliciano from the Philippines's Bicol Region.[43] Others came later from: Manila, Cavite, Ilocos, Camarines, Zamboanga, Zambales, Leyte, Samar, Antique, Bulacan, Bohol, Cagayan, and Surigao.[44]

American period

Significant immigration to the United States began in the 1900s[45] after the Spanish–American War when the Philippines became an overseas territory of the United States, and the population became United States nationals.[46] Unlike other Asians who were unable to immigrate to the United States because of the immigration laws of the time, Filipinos, as U.S. nationals, were exempt.[47] In December 1915, it was ruled that Filipinos were eligible for naturalization and could become citizens.[48] Naturalization remained difficult, however, with documented cases of denied naturalization and de-naturalization occurring in the early 20th century.[49] Filipinos, many agricultural laborers, settled primarily in the then Territory of Hawaii and California.[50] Of the one hundred thirteen thousand Filipinos who immigrated during the early American period, about a third returned to the Philippines.[51]

A smaller group of immigrants were sent on a scholarship program established by the Philippine Commission,[52] and were collectively known as "pensionados";[53] the first batch of pensionados was sent in 1903 and the scholarship program continued until World War II.[54] The students were chosen initially from wealthy and elite Filipino families, but were later from a more diverse background. Other Filipino students, outside the program, came to the United States for education; many did not return to the Philippines.[55]

During this wave of migration to the United States from the Philippines, men outnumbered women by a ratio of about 15:1.[56] Nuclear families were rare, therefore, and an indication of privilege.[57] This migration, known as the "manong generation",[58] was reduced to 50 persons a year after passage of the Tydings–McDuffie Act (officially the Philippine Independence Act) which classified Filipinos as aliens.[6][59] This was offset by the United States Navy's recruitment of Filipinos,[6] that began in 1898 and authorized by President William McKinley in 1901.[6][60] They were exempt from this quota.[6] Additionally, those Filipino sailors were eligible for naturalization after three years of service.[61] By 1922, Filipinos made up 5.7% of the United States Navy's enlisted personnel.[59] In 1930, there were twenty-five thousand Filipino Americans in the United States Navy, primarily rated as stewards,[62] having largely displaced African-Americans in that rating.[63]

Post independence

The War Brides Act of 1945, and subsequent Alien Fiancées and Fiancés Act of 1946,[64][65] allowed veterans to return to the Philippines to bring back fiancées, wives, and children.[66][67] In the years following the war, some sixteen thousand Filipinas entered the United States as war brides.[68] That is not to say only women and children were beneficiaries of the acts, for it was recorded that a lone Filipino groom immigrated during this period.[69] These new immigrants formed a second generation of Filipino Americans that grew Filipino American communities,[65] providing nuclear families.[70] Immigration levels were impacted by the independence of the Philippines from the United States,[71] that occurred on 4 July 1946. The quota of non-naval immigration increased slightly to 100 because of the passage of the Luce–Celler Act of 1946.[71] Thus, Filipino American communities developed around United States Navy bases, whose impact can still be seen today.[70][72] Filipino American communities were also settled near Army and Air Force bases.[70] After World War II, until 1965, half of all Filipino immigrants to the United States were wives of U.S. servicemembers.[15] In 1946, the Filipino Naturalization Act allowed for naturalization,[73] and citizenship for Filipinos who had arrived before March 1943.[74] Beginning in 1948, due to the U.S. Education Exchange Act, Filipino nurses began to immigrate to the United States; 7,000 arrived that year.[75]

Post 1965

Following the enactment of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, until at least the 1990s, the Philippines became the largest source of Asian immigration, providing one-fourth of Asian immigrants to the United States.[6][76] Filipinos were the largest number of Asians immigrants to the U.S. and the second-largest immigrant population after Mexicans.[77] Into the 1990s, Filipino immigrants included many highly educated and higher skilled immigrants.[58][78] A significant portion of them worked in the medical field filling medical personnel shortages in the U.S. in areas like nursing. As a result of the shortage of nurses, the Philippines become the largest source of healthcare professionals who immigrated to the U.S.[79] In the 1960s, nurses from the Philippines became the largest group of nurses immigrating to the U.S. surpassing those immigrating from Canada.[80] By the 1970s, 9,158 Filipino nurses had immigrated to the U.S., making up 60% of its immigrant nurses.[81] By 2000, one in ten Filipino Americans, or an estimated 100,000 immigrants, were employed as nurses.[75] in 2020, the estimate of Filipino American nurses increased to over 150,000, or 4% of the all nurses in the United States.[82] In 2020, 7% of those employed in the medical field were Filipino American.[83] Another result of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 was that family reunification based immigration added to the total number of Filipino immigrants resulting in two distinct economic groups within the Filipino American community.[79][84]

Like other immigrant groups, Filipino immigrants clustered together both out of a sense of community and in response to prejudice against them. This created the first Little Manilas in urban areas.[85] As time passed, immigration policies changed, and prejudice diminished, leading to a decline in the presence of Little Manilas.[86] Between 1965 and 1985, more than 400,000 Filipinos immigrated to the United States.[87] In 1970, immigrants made up more than half (53%) of all Filipino Americans.[88] In 1980, Filipino Americans were the largest group of Asian Americans in the entire US.[89] Half a million of the Filipino American population were immigrants, making up 3.6% of all immigrants in the U.S.[15] outnumbering United States-born Filipino Americans two to one.[90] In the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s more than half a million Filipinos obtained legal permanent resident status in the U.S. during each decade.[91] In 1992, the U.S. Navy ended the Philippines Enlistment Program because of the end of the 1947 Military Bases Agreement. It had allowed about thirty-five thousand Filipinos to join the U.S. Navy, many of whom immigrated to the U.S.[92] Filipino Americans tended to settle in major metropolitan areas,[93] and in the West[94] in a more dispersed fashion. They also intermarried more than other Asian Americans.[90]

Population concentrations

In 2010, Filipino Americans were the largest group of Asian Americans in 10 of the 13 western states: Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Washington, Wyoming; Filipino Americans are also the largest group of Asian Americans in South Dakota.[3] Filipino immigrants have dispersed across the United States, gravitating toward economic and professional opportunities, independent of geographic location.[14][98] Among the 1,814,000 Philippines-born Filipino Americans, the states with the largest concentrations are California (44.8%), Hawaii (6.2%), New Jersey (4.8%), Texas (4.8%), and Illinois (4.7%).[99]Table 4. In 2008, 35% of Filipino immigrants in the United States lived in the Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York City metropolitan areas;[100] by 2011, the percentage of the total Filipino immigrant population in the U.S. in those metropolitan areas was 33%.[14] In 2010, Filipino Americans constituted the largest Asian American group within five of the nation's twenty largest metropolitan areas: San Diego, Riverside, Las Vegas, Sacramento, and Houston.[101]

Although Filipinos first arrived in California in the 16th century,[102] the first documentation of a Filipino residing in California did not occur until 1781, when Antonio Miranda Rodriguez was counted in the census as a "chino".[103][104] Initially part of the expedition that would establish Pueblo de Los Ángeles, Rodriguez was not present when Pueblo de Los Ángeles was founded.[103] Delayed in Baja California due to illness in his family, he arrived in Alta California later.[103][105] In 1910, there were only five Filipinos in California;[106] ten years later, in 1920, 2,674 Filipinos lived there.[107] In 1930, there were about 35,000 Filipino agricultural laborers in California's Central Valley[108] where the majority of Filipinos in the United States resided.[109] Filipino laborers tended to have better working conditions and earn more than their Mexican or Japanese counterparts;[110] in addition, they were described as "dandies and sharp dressers".[111]

Before World War II, Stockton had the largest population of Filipinos outside of the Philippine Islands, and during the harvest season, its Filipino population would swell to over 10,000.[112] During the Great Depression Filipinos in California were the target of race riots, including the Watsonville riots.[113] By the end of World War II, the Filipino population in Stockton increased to over 15,000.[114] In the late 1950s, Filipino Americans in California were concentrated around Stockton, the Bay Area, and Los Angeles with migrant laborers being a significant part of the population.[115] By 1970, the Filipino population in Stockton was less than 5,000,[116] and the once vibrant Filipino community of "Little Manila" had been largely demolished except for a few blocks by 1999, mostly due to construction of the "Crosstown Freeway".[117] A population of Filipinos remains in the Central Valley region in the 21st century, however it is no longer a significant concentration.[118][119] In 2019, it was estimated that Filipino Americans are the largest populations of Asian Americans in Stockton, and are about 28,000 people.[120]

In 1940, the Filipino population grew to 31,408 and continued to grow to 67,134 by 1960. It had nearly doubled to 135,248 by 1970, and by 1990 had grown to almost three quarters of a million people (733,941).[121] Since at least 1990, Filipino Americans have been the largest group of Asian Pacific Americans in the state.[122][123] In 1990, more than half (52%) of all Filipino Americans lived in California.[90] In 2000, almost half of all Filipino Americans in the United States lived in California (49.4%), with Los Angeles County and San Diego County having the highest concentrations;[124] additionally in 2000, California was home to nearly half (49%) of Filipino immigrants.[125] In 2008, one out of every four Filipino Americans lived in Southern California, numbering over one million.[126][127]

The 2010 Census, confirmed that Filipino Americans had grown to become the largest Asian American population in the state[118][128] totaling 1,474,707 persons;[129] 43% of all Filipino Americans live in California.[130] Of these persons, 1,195,580 were not multiracial Filipino Americans.[11][131] As of 2011, California is home to 45% of all Filipino immigrants to the United States.[14] In 2013, 22,797 Filipino immigrants seeking lawful permanent residence within the United States sought residence in the state of California,[132] a change from 22,484 in 2012,[133] 20,261 in 2011,[134] and 24,082 in 2010.[135] 20% of California's registered nurses were Filipino in 2013;[136] according to the California Healthcare Foundation, Los Angeles County has the largest concentration of Filipino American nurses, who are 27% of nurses in the county.[137] By 2021, the percentage of nurses in California who are Filipino American dropped down to 18%.[138]

By the 2020 Census, the share of Filipino Americans who lived in California decreased to 39.3% of all Filipino Americans living in the United States.[4] Filipino Americans, including multiracial Filipino Americans, were the second largest population of Asian Americans in California, with 1,741,613 Filipino Americans living in the state.[139]

Greater Los Angeles

Filipino pensionados began arriving to the region in 1903, including Ventura County;[140] others attended schools in Los Angeles County, including the University of Southern California, and University of California, Los Angeles.[141] In the 1920s, the area now known as Little Tokyo was known as Little Manila, where the first concentration of Filipino immigrants in Los Angeles lived.[142] In 1930, one in five Filipinos in the United States called Los Angeles County home. The number of Filipinos in the area expanded in the winter season to work temporary jobs.[143] In 1937, the first Filipina American graduated from UCLA.[144][145] In 1940, there were 4,503 Filipinos living in the City of Los Angeles.[88] Little Manila extended to the Bunker Hill and Civic Center areas of Los Angeles, but was forced to relocate to the Temple-Beverly Corridor in the 1950s and 1960s;[146][147] it has since been largely forgotten.[148] In the 20th century, Filipino sailors with the United States Navy began to be stationed in Oxnard and Long Beach, developing military related Filipino enclaves;[124][149] Long Beach community began in the 1940s,[150] the Oxnard community saw significant growth after the 1960s.[151] According to the 1970 United States Census, the Los Angeles-Long Beach metropolitan area had the third largest Filipino American population in the United States at that time (32,018).[152] In the 1980s, there were 219,653 Filipinos in Los Angeles County.[153] In 1985, Helen Agcaoili Summers Brown opened the Filipino American Reading Room and Library.[144][145][154][155] In 1990, there were more Filipinos living in suburban Los Angeles (160,778), than in urban Los Angeles (135,336).[156] In 1996 one in four of Asian Americans in Los Angeles was Filipino.[154] In the last two decades of the 20th century Filipinos were the second-largest population of Asian Americans in the region, however one writer described the population as having a "residential invisibility", with other Asian American populations being more visible.[157]

Greater Los Angeles is the metropolitan area home to the most Filipino Americans, with the population numbered around 606,657 in 2010;[158] Los Angeles County alone accounted for over 374,285 Filipinos,[159] the most of any single county in the U.S.[122] The Los Angeles region has the second-largest concentrated population of Filipinos in the world, surpassed only by Manila.[160] Greater Los Angeles is also home to the largest number of Filipino immigrants (16% of the total Filipino immigrant population of the United States), as of 2011.[14] Filipinos are the second-largest group of Asian Americans in the region;[161] however, in 2010, Filipinos were the largest population of Asian Americans within the city of Los Angeles.[162] In 2016, among those surveyed for a report entitled The Color of Wealth in Los Angeles, Filipino Americans had the second-largest proportion of college graduates, with 76.2% having at least a bachelor's degree.[163]

The city of Los Angeles designated a section of Westlake as Historic Filipinotown in 2002. It is now largely populated by Hispanic and Latino Americans. Most Filipinos who resided in the area and the city in general have moved to the suburbs,[146][148][164] particularly cities in the San Gabriel Valley, including West Covina and Rowland Heights.[165][166][167] Due to West Covina's significant concentration of Filipino Americans, it was proposed a business district be designated a "Little Manila".[168] In 2014, about a quarter of Historic Filipinotown's population was Filipino, however the population did not have a significant "visible cultural impact";[169] in 2007, Filipinos were 15% of the area's population.[170] Within the city of Los Angeles, Eagle Rock has over 6,000 Filipinos calling the neighborhood home;[171] additionally, as of 2000 the largest source of foreign-born individuals was the Philippines.[172] Panorama City is another Los Angeles neighborhood with a noticeable Filipino population.[173] In 2010, 32.4% of Asians in La Puente were foreign-born Filipino.[174] Other significant concentrations of Filipino Americans in Los Angeles County are in Carson,[175][176] where "Larry Itliong Day" was dedicated,[177] Cerritos,[166][167][178] and Glendale.[179] Orange County also has a sizable and growing Filipino population,[180] whose population grew by 178% in the 1980s;[181] by 2018 the population was estimated to be 89,000.[182] The Inland Empire also has a population of Filipinos, with an estimated 59,000 living in the region in 2003, a hundred years after the first Filipinos arrived in the area to attend Riverside High School;[183] of those about 2,400 lived in Coachella Valley.[184] By the early 2010s estimates were there were around 90,000 Filipinos living in the region—the largest group with Asian ancestry in the area.[185]

As of the 2020 Census, Filipino Americans were the second largest population of Asian Americans, after Chinese Americans, whose 419,187 persons made up 24.7% of all Asian Americans in Los Angeles County.[186]

San Francisco Bay Area

One of the earliest records of a Filipino settling in the San Francisco Bay Area occurred in the mid-19th century, when a Filipino immigrant and his Miwok wife settled in Lairds Landing on the Marin County coast;[187][188] many Coast Miwok trace their lineage to this couple.[187][189] Significant migration began in the early 20th century, including upper-class mestizo businessmen, mariners, and students (known as pensionados).[190] Another group of Filipinos who immigrated to the Bay Area was war brides, many of whom married African-American "buffalo soldiers".[191] Additionally, other immigrants came through the U.S. Military, some through the Presidio of San Francisco, and others as migrant workers on their way to points inland; many of these Filipinos would settle down permanently in the Bay Area, establishing "Manilatown" on Kearny Street (next to Chinatown).[190] At its largest size, "Manilatown" was home to at least 10,000,[192][193] the last of whom were evicted in August 1977 from the International Hotel.[192][194][195] After 1965, Filipinos from the Philippines began immigrating to San Francisco, concentrating in the South of Market neighbourhood.[194] In 1970, the San Francisco-Oakland metropolitan area had the largest population of Filipinos of any metropolitan area in the continental United States—44,326.[152] Two other nearby metropolitan areas also had a population of Filipinos greater than 5,000 in 1970, San Jose (6,768), and Salinas-Monterey (6,147).[152] Due to a change in the ethnic make up of the Yerba Buena neighborhood, and with the construction of the Dimasalang House in 1979, four street names were changed to honor notable Filipinos.[194][196] By 1990, 30% of the population in South of Market was Filipino American.[194]

The 2000 Census showed that the greater San Francisco Bay Area was home to approximately 320,000 residents of Filipino descent,[197] with the largest concentration living in Santa Clara County.[198] In the mid-2000s Filipino Americans were between one fifth and one fourth of the total population of Vallejo, having been drawn there by agriculture and Mare Island Naval Shipyard.[199] In 2007, there were about a hundred thousand Filipino Americans living in the East Bay alone.[191] By the time of the 2010 Census the greater San Francisco Bay Area was home to 463,458 Filipino Americans and multiracial Filipino Americans;[200] Santa Clara county continued to have the largest concentration in the area.[201] In 2011, 9% of all Filipino immigrants to the United States reside in the San Francisco metropolitan area, and an additional 3% resided in the San Jose metropolitan area.[14] Daly City, in the San Francisco Bay Area, has the highest concentration of Filipino Americans of any municipality in the U.S.; Filipino Americans comprise 35% of the city's population.[202] In 2016, although the number of Filipinos living within the City of San Francisco has been reduced, a heritage district was designated "SoMa Pilipinas".[203]

San Diego County

San Diego has historically been a destination for Filipino immigrants and has contributed to the growth of its population.[79][204][205] One of the earliest instances of a Filipino being in San Diego, occurred during the Portolá expedition in 1769, while California was still part of New Spain.[206] The first documentation of Filipinos arriving in San Diego, as part of the United States, occurred in 1903 when Filipino students arrived at State Normal School;[121][207] they were followed as early as 1908 by Filipino sailors serving in the United States Navy.[208] Due to discriminatory housing policies of the time, the majority of Filipinos in San Diego lived downtown around Market Street,[121][209] then known as "Skid Row".[210] Prior to World War II, due to anti-miscegenation laws, multi-racial marriages with Hispanic and Latino women were common, particularly with Mexicans.[211] In the 1940s and 1950s, Filipino Americans were the largest population of Asians within the City of San Diego, with a population around 500.[209] After World War II, the majority of Filipino Americans in San Diego were associated with the U.S. Navy in one form or another. Even in the late 1970s and early 1980s more than half of Filipino babies born in the greater San Diego area were born at Balboa Naval Hospital.[121] In the 1970s, the typical Filipino family consisted of a husband whose employment was connected to the military, and a wife who was a nurse.[212] Many Filipino American veterans, after completing active duty, would move out of San Diego, to the suburbs of Chula Vista and National City.[167] In 1995, it was estimated that Filipinos made up between 35% and 45% of the population of National City.[213]

From a population of 799 in 1940,[121] to 15,069 in 1970,[121][152] by 1990 the Filipino American population in San Diego County increased to 95,945.[121] In 2000, San Diego County had the second-largest Filipino American population of any county in the nation, with over 145,000 Filipinos, alone or in combination;[214] by the 2010 Census the population had grown to 182,248.[215] In 1990 and 2000, San Diego was the only metropolitan area in the U.S. where, at more than fifty percent, Filipinos constituted the largest Asian American nationality.[214][216][217] As of 2011, 5% of all Filipino immigrants in the United States call San Diego County home;[14] by 2012, there was an estimated 94,000 Filipino immigrants living in San Diego.[15] Filipinos concentrated in the South Bay,[218] where they had been historically concentrated.[121] In 2015, there were over 31,000 Filipino Americans in Chula Vista alone.[219] Also, in 2015, it was documented that the county had the third largest concentration of Filipino Americans in the entire United States.[220] By late 2016, the population in the county increased to almost 200 thousand.[221] More affluent Filipino Americans moved into the suburbs of North County,[218] particularly Mira Mesa (sometimes referred to as "Manila Mesa").[222] A portion of California State Route 54 in San Diego is officially named the "Filipino-American Highway", in recognition of the Filipino American community.[223]

As of the 2020 Census, Filipino Americans were the plurality of all Asian Americans living in San Diego County, with their 215,168 people making up 41.6% of all Asian Americans within the county.[224]

From 1909 to 1934, Hawaiian sugar plantations recruited Filipinos, later known as sakadas; by 1932 Filipinos made up the majority of laborers on Hawaiian sugar plantations.[59] In 1920, Filipinos were the fifth largest population by race in Hawaii, with 21,031 people.[225] By 1930, the population of Filipinos in Hawaii had nearly tripled to 63,052.[226] As late as 1940, the population of Filipinos in the Territory of Hawaii outnumbered Filipinos in the continental United States.[59] In 1970, the Honolulu metropolitan area alone had a population of 66,653 Filipinos, the largest Filipino population in any metropolitan area in the United States.[152]

According to the 2000 Census, the state of Hawaii had a Filipino population of over 275,000,[227][228] with over 191,000 living on the island of Oahu;[228] of those, 102,000 were immigrants.[125] Furthermore, Filipinos made up the third largest ethnicity among Asian Pacific Americans,[229] while making up the majority of the populations of Kauai and Maui counties.[230] In June 2002, representatives from the Arroyo Administration and local leaders presided over the grand opening and dedication of the Filipino Community Center in Waipahu.[231] In the 2010 census, Filipino Americans became the largest Asian ethnicity in Hawaii, partially due to the declining population of the state's Japanese Americans.[232] In 2011, four percent of all Filipino immigrants in the U.S. resided in the Honolulu metro area, and were 43% of all immigrants in the Honolulu metro area as well. Filipino immigrants in Hawaii made up six per cent of all Filipino immigrants in the United States.[14]

In 2020, there were 383,200 Filipino Americans in Hawaii.[233] A quarter of the population of Hawaii are Filipino Americans.[234][235] Filipino Americans are the second largest ethnicity in Hawaii, after European Americans.[236] Filipino Americans in Hawaii have the second highest median family income of any ethnic group, after Japanese Americans in Hawaii, yet they are not one of the dominate ethnicities within the socioeconomic hierarchy in Hawaii.[236] The majority of Filipino Americans in Hawaii live in multigenerational households; and nearly a third work in the service industry.[236] During the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, Filipino Americans were about a fifth of all COVID-19 cases in Hawaii.[237] 2023 Hawaii wildfires on Maui significantly impacted the Filipino American community in Lahaina, where 40% of the community's population before the wildfires were Filipino Americans.[235][238]

Texas

The first Filipino known by name in Texas was Francisco Flores, who came to Texas by way of Cuba in the nineteenth century.[239][240] Flores lived initially in Port Isabel later moving to Rockport.[239] Following the annexation of the Philippines by the United States, Filipinos began migrating to Texas.[239] Filipino employees of American officers who served in the Philippines, would move with those officers when they returned to the Continental United States, with many settling around San Antonio.[239] Other Filipinos resettled in Texas after initially residing elsewhere in the United States.[239] In 1910, there were six Filipinos living in Texas, by 1920 this number had increased to 30, and by 1930, the population had grown to 288.[106] With the disbandment of the Philippine Scouts, many who remained in the military came to call Fort Sam Houston home, along with Filipina war brides.[241] After World War II, many Filipino professionals began immigrating to Texas; 2,000 Filipino nurses called Houston home.[239] In 1950, about 4,000 Filipino Americans were in Texas;[242] their number had increased to 75,226 by 2000.[25]

As more Filipino Americans came to Texas, the center of their population shifted to Houston, which today has one of the largest Filipino populations in the South.[242] Fort Bend County near Houston has the highest percentage of Filipinos in Texas.[243] With Texas being part of the Bible Belt, it is often a popular destination for emigrating Filipino Protestants.[242] In 2000, Texas was home to the seventh-largest population of Filipino immigrants.[125] According to the 2010 Census, there were 137,713 Filipino Americans and multiracial Filipino Americans in Texas.[244] In 2011, five percent (86,400) of all Filipino immigrants in the United States lived in Texas.[14]

Filipino migration to the Chicago area began in 1906 with the immigration of pensionados,[274] consisting predominantly of men. A significant number of them married non-Filipinos, mainly Eastern or Southern European women.[275] At one point, 300 of these early Chicago Filipinos worked for the Pullman Company, and overall tended to be more educated than most men of their age.[275] During the 1930s, they were predominantly in the Near South Side until the 1965 immigration reforms.[276] In 1930, there were 1,796 Filipinos living in Chicago.

Little Manilas

In areas with sparse Filipino populations, they often form loose-knit social organizations aimed at maintaining a "sense of family", which is a key feature of Filipino culture. These organizations generally arrange social events, especially of a charitable nature, and keep members up-to-date with local events.[398] They are often organized into regional associations,[399] which are a small part of Filipino American life. Filipino Americans formed close-knit neighborhoods, notably in California and Hawaii.[400] A few communities have "Little Manilas", civic and business districts tailored to the Filipino American community.[401]

Language

Filipino Americans form a multilingual community but the two most spoken languages are English and Tagalog.[402] In 2009, Tagalog was the fourth largest language spoken in the United States with around 1.5 million speakers.[403]

Religion

According to a Pew Research Center survey published in July 2012, the majority of Filipino American respondents are Roman Catholic (65%), followed by Protestant (21%), unaffiliated (8%), and Buddhist (1%).[404] There are also smaller populations of Filipino American Muslims—particularly those who originate from the Southern Philippines.[175]

Socioeconomic status

Economics

The Filipino-American community is largely middle and upper middle class;[216][405] in 2014, 18% of Filipino American households were in the top tenth of U.S. households in terms of income.[15] The representation of Filipino Americans employed in health care is high.[75][406][407] Other sectors of the economy where Filipino Americans have significant representation are in the public sector,[408] and in the service sector.[127][409] Compared to Asian American women of other ethnicities, and women in the United States in general, Filipina Americans are more likely to be part of the work force;[410] a large population, nearly one fifth (18%), of Filipina Americans worked as registered nurses.[15]

Among Overseas Filipinos, Filipino Americans are the largest remitters of U.S. dollars to the Philippines. In 2005, their combined dollar remittances reached a record-high of almost $6.5 billion. In 2006, Filipino Americans sent more than $8 billion, which represents 57% of the total foreign remittances received by the Philippines.[412] By 2012, this amount had reached $10.6 billion, but made up only 43% of total remittances.[12] In 2021, the United States was the largest source of remittances to the Philippines, making up 40.5% of the $31.4 billion remittances received by the Philippines.[413]

Filipino Americans own a variety of businesses, making up 10.5% of all Asian owned businesses in the United States in 2007.[414] In 2002, according to the Survey of Business Owners, there were over 125,000 Filipino-owned businesses; this increased by 30.4% to over 163,000 in 2007.[415] By then, 25.4% of these businesses were in the retail industry, 23% were in the health care and social assistance industries,[416] and they employed more than 142,000 people and generated almost $15.8 billion in revenue.[414] Of those, just under three thousand (1.8% of all Filipino-owned businesses) were million dollar or more businesses.[414][416] California had the largest number of Filipino-owned businesses, with the Los Angeles metropolitan area having the largest number of any metropolitan area in the United States.[414]

In 2010, Filipino Americans' employment rate was 61.5%; the unemployment rate was 8.5%.[417] In 1990 and 2000, the decennial censuses found that, while lower than the national average, foreign-born Filipinos had a lower poverty rate than those born in the United States;[418] by 2007, the situation had reversed.[419] In 2012, a smaller percentage of Filipino American adults lived in poverty than the national average (6.2% verse 12.8%).[12] At the point of retirement, a notable percentage of Filipino Americans return to the Philippines.[420] In 1990, the elderly Filipino American poverty rate was eight percent.[406] In 1999 among elderly Filipino Americans, the poverty rate had dropped to 6.3%—lower than that of the total geriatric population (9.9%), and lowest among Asian Americans.[421]

Education

The 1990 Census reports that Filipino Americans had the highest percentage of college educated individuals of any Asian American population.[26] Filipino Americans have some of the highest educational attainment rates in the United States with 47.9% of all Filipino Americans over the age of 25 having a bachelor's degree in 2004, which correlates with rates observed in other Asian American subgroups.[28]fig.11
 In 2011, 61% of United States-born Filipino Americans had achieved an education level greater than a high school diploma.[14] The post-1965 wave of Filipino professionals immigrating to the U.S. to make up the education, healthcare, and information technology employee shortages also accounts for the high educational attainment rates.[11][78][100] Second generation Filipino Americans have trended to have a lower educational achievement than their first generation parents.[422]

Due to the strong American influence in the Philippine education system, first generation Filipino immigrants are also at advantage in gaining professional licensure in the United States. According to a study conducted by the American Medical Association, Philippine-trained physicians comprise the second-largest group of foreign-trained physicians in the United States (20,861 or 8.7% of all practicing international medical graduates in the U.S.).[423] Other physicians, in order to immigrate from the Philippines, re-licensed as nurses.[80] In addition, Filipino American dentists trained in the Philippines comprise the second-largest group of foreign-trained dentists in the United States. An article from the Journal of the American Dental Association asserts that 11% of all foreign-trained dentists licensed in the U.S. are from the Philippines; India is ranked first with 25.8% of all foreign dentists.[424]

The significant drop in the percentage of Filipino nurses from the 1980s to 2000 is because of the increase in the number of countries recruiting Filipino nurses (European Union, the Middle East, Japan), as well as the increase in the number of other countries sending nurses to the United States.[425] Even with the significant drop, in 2005 Filipino American nurses made up 3.7% of the total United States nursing population, and were 40% of all foreign-trained nurses in the United States.[80]

American schools have also hired and sponsored the immigration of Filipino teachers and instructors.[426] Some of these teachers were forced into labor outside the field of education, and mistreated by their recruiters.[427]

The overall socioeconomic status of Filipino-Americans as indicated by their educational achievement, occupational distribution, and income levels may obscure significant disparities within the population. Filipinos in New York and New Jersey have a much higher socioeconomic status than that of other coutnerparts in Hawaii (Liu et al. 1988:509). More than two-thirds of Filipino immigrants in New York and New Jersey came in 1973 and 1979 and 50% who arrived in 1985 were health and other highly trained professionals, especially medical doctors and nurses, in the Philippines. In contrast, Hawaii Filipinos remain very much a working-class group with only limited upward social mobility, especially into managerial and professional positions since the beginning of the 1970s (Okamura 1990).
