In order for the NY CSA to be as Asian as the Bay Area, they would need 4.840 Million Asians.
Here are side by side, to-scale(meaning they are the same size) maps of NY and SF, with a map showing the penetration of Asians into the entire region.
Its really not close as far as the diaspora of Asians across the entire region, when you leave the NY CSA, the Asian population appears to dwindle significantly, but in Northern California, Asians are a clearly a strong presence in Metros that surround the Bay Area as well.
And that shouldnt really come as a surprise since 1 in 4 Bay Area residents is either Asian or Asian mixed with another race.

California has about 5 million asians most in LA and SF, the percentages are higher. Of course, NYC has high raw numbers. California is closer to asia, and is the entry point for most. Hello?!
So if I created a thread titled, "Is Chicago the Black Mecca of the US," it would make sense to merge it into a thread called, "Which City is the Hub for Black Culture: Atlanta or Washington, DC?"
NYC: 2 million
DC: 600,000
Boston: 400,000
Philadelphia: 400,000
Rest of Bos-Wash (places in CT and RI and PA not counted): ~100,000
total: 3.5 million
LOL! Yeah, apparently now in the minds of bitter Californians. I guess Chicago is now an East Coast city and Puerto Rico is part of the East Coast now.
Awesome!
Thats still less than LA + SF, so whats the debate?
You wanted to go Florida to Maine. And you really think there are another 2m on the east coast outside of Bos-Wash.....c'mon
News Flash:
California is on the Pacific rim. NYC is not. Just look at the whole coast, you take Nova Scotia we'll take British Columbia, theres a few asians up there to. Its a west coast culture......

He said that because there are only three states on the West Coast (to my knowledge): California, Oregon, and Washington. Please let me know if that has changed.
Florida to Maine is the entire East Coast (PA technically not being on the Seaboard, however).
