New York CSA: 1,964,485
Bay Area CSA: 1,672,456 (2nd highest percentage Asian)
Runner up eh? Looks like these numbers show a different runner up!
Anyways, I love how all the California boosters avoid the fact that there is an extreme LACK of South Asian representation in California, that one can find all over the Tri-State Area.
Here are a few notable South Asians that help run the Tri State Area
Furthermore, despite having less Asians than the Tri State Area, the Bay Area has more upper income Asian households:
Asian Households Earning $100,000+
San Jose-San Francisco-Oakland 233,203....44.8% of all Asian Households
New York-Newark-Bridgeport 227,129....36.9% of all Asian Households
As far as Forbes Billionaires:
New York Tri State Area:0
Connecticut: 0
New Jersey: 0
New York: 0
Los Angeles Area: 4
Patrick Soon-Shiong $5.2 Billion
David Sun $2.6 Billion
John Tu $2.6 Billion
Jin Sook & Do Won Chang $2.2 Billion
San Francisco Bay Area: 4
Kavitark Ram Shirarm $1.6 Billion
Vinod Khosla $1.4 Billion
Romesh T. Wadhwani $1.4 Billion
Jerry Yang $1.3 Billion
Yeah, but if you count half-Asians, New York pulls away even further.
Even there, the Bay Area is still TWICE AS ASIAN.
Asian Alone or Asian Combined With Another Race, 2010 Census
New York-Newark-Bridgeport 2,210,654........10.0% of the total population
San Jose-San Francisco-Oakland 1,875,451....25.1% of the total population
1 in 4 Bay Area residents is Asian or Asian mixed with another race.
In order to be equal, the Tri-State Area needs its Asian or mixed Asian population to soar to 5.543 Million people.
GOOD. EFFIN'. LORD. Can't we just divvy this up family style and let everyone have a fair piece. I mean, what's really at stake here? Answer me that, What's at stake? All three are definitive centers of the Asian-American presence in the United States. Anyone who discounts the importance of any of the others--yeah, YOU--is missing something intellectually vital.
Now everyone gets a fortune cookie that says it's the "hub" of Asian culture, between the sheets.

That fortune cookie would say "San Francisco" where the fortune cookie was invented.....
I can guarantee you there are more hapas in CA than the tristate area. Furthermore, even according to the data you posted up there, you can combine PA, NJ, and NY - three states - and they STILL lose to CA... so, you more or less have to combine three states to beat two metros in CA that don't even make up the whole population.
Talk about calling in a brigade to defeat a platoon... yeesh. And even still:
The total number of interracial marriages in CA is greater than the total number of interracial marriages in the tri-state.
The percentage of specifically Asian-White couples in CA is greater than in the tri-state area by a pretty fair amount.
This means that there are more Asian-White couples in CA than in the tri-state, no matter how you want to look at it.
The more Asian-White couples there are, the more Asian-White children there will be. And this is hardly a new thing in CA.
By "Asian", do you mean Lebanese or Vietnamese, or what?
