Growing up in Northern CA, many of my friends were half-asian. Mostly Asian/White or Asian/Black. White dad/Asian mom or Black dad/Asian mom.

That's just the "24/25 year old Eurasian female" population (that is now the "35/36 year old Eurasian female" population). The "Eurasian" population is a mere subset of the "half-Asian" population, which is itself a subset of the "hapa" population. Simply put: "hapa" > "half-Asian" > "Eurasian"...

Having grown up in Hawai'i, I've seen almost every "half-Asian" combination imaginable.

For instance, consider Kanani Danielson, a Kamehameha Schools alum that currently plays volleyball for the University of Hawai'i, who's a "hapa" of Native Hawaiian and African American descent...

Kanani Danielson, Remembering High School Years at Kamehameha - YouTube

Kimora Lee Simmons, who's a "half-Asian" of Korean and African American descent...

And, Ann Curry, who's a "Eurasian" of Japanese, French, Irish, and Dutch descent...

Ann Curry's First Day as Co-Anchor on "Today" - 6/9/11 - YouTube

If one counts "hapas", Danielson, Simmons, and Curry all qualify. If one counts just "half-Asians", only Simmons and Curry qualify. If one counts just "Eurasians", only Curry qualifies. And, if one counts "true hapas", only Danielson qualifies.

Our across-the-street neighbors when I was growing up were a white guy with a Japanese wife (married her while in the service). They had three daughters and they were gorgeous - much better looking than either parent.

What about personal experience. Could you tell me where you live and whether or not you see a lot of half-Asians in that area?

I've heard from a few friends (and the census seems to corroborate this) that LA has the most half-Asians. But the census may not be entirely accurate. Not everyone fills their census form out and some half-Asians may identify as Asian or some other race.

From personal experience, would you say that LA has the most? How does it compare to, say, the Bay Area?

Should I, maybe, post a similar thread in the San Francisco and Los Angeles sub-forums?
