title: Studying the Pan Asian community.
abstract: The author examines the population size, dynamics, natural increase, and income of what is described as the Pan Asian population of the United States.  "This population is extremely diverse, giving rise to the term 'Pan Asian,' which encompasses immigrants from Asian and Pacific Island countries and native-born citizens descended from those ethnic groups."  Data are from official U.S. sources, including the census and current population surveys.
