As to where you should live based on race. it is more important to know type of employment you and your husband are going to be seeking.

With that knowledge, the forum members can then show you possible places to live, with regard to where people of similar race and color are present, and you would be accepted.

I know what you mean, but there's a part you're missing. Since 9/11, Indians get mistaken for Arabic or Muslim which, in some people's minds, equals "terrorist." I'm speaking from experience. It happens in the city to us (thankfully rare, and mostly just in airports). But this is not an uncommon experience for Indian-Americans in US and Canada. The last time we drove through Georgia, we apparently scared a couple at a rest stop just by asking them to take a photo of us in front of a monument.

In my area not much racism. What turns locals off is people who practice their city values and expect us hicks to change

I've gotten a lot of recommendations for Arizona and Ohio! I'll check those areas out!



Anyone out there living in North Carolina? Any recommendations there? I love the beauty of the land.

Asian Indians are not commonly met with in rural America, but in a certain small town in East Texas there's a fairly prominent business that's run by Asian Indians that I know of.


I suspect you're worrying more than you need to.
I live in an area that is 60/40 White/Black. I've been here 20 years and have never even seen anyone thing or anyone who represents the KKK.
And yet the OP insists that there are areas with a strong KKK presence....


No one even looks twice at mixed marriages anymore.

This is ALWAYS STATED by a CD posters. "Are you employed?' Don't you think they have that part covered? What is it? You just can't answer the question posed with out giving people the third degree about their finances?

That WAS NOT WHAT THEY ASKED.

They asked about DIVERSITY. I know, I know, it's a bad word to some of you.

I am white and I enjoy living in a diverse city. I raised my children in a diverse exurb of NYC. It was diverse because it had a major tier one research university and medical center.
It was also very, very pricy, which is why we finally moved.

I am not sure what price range they are seeking but if homes over $750,000 and above are an option. the Three Village Area is picturesque, sophisticated, has people from all around the word, connected to the university, the medical school, the dental school, or the medical center. Many also are scientists at the nearby Brookhaven Lab.

So far two posters have recommended parts of NJ. I would expand that to the entire state of NJ. I believe there are more foreign born people there than any other state. NJ has very high property taxes, though.
