\"asialogo\"Although Northfield is less racially diverse than the coastal cities in the United States<\/b>, there is a significant population of Asian Americans, and the number has been increasing throughout the recent years. Bolstered by the influx of Vietnamese refugees between 1975 and 1999, the population of Asian Americans in Northfield has grown to 4.4% as of 2022. Today, people of various Asian descents, such as Asian-Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Laotian, Filipino, Thai, Vietnamese, and many others call this town home. Nevertheless, this number does not take into account the international students who attend both St. Olaf College and Carleton College. <\/span>

Overall, Minnesota has a growing Asian population<\/b> that includes a wide range of ethnic backgrounds. Similar to most regions in the United States, Minnesota\u2019s early Asian Pacific population were predominantly Chinese, Japanese, and Filipinos (Council on Asian Pacific Minnesotans, 2012). The earliest documentation of Asians in Minnesota was in 1880 when two Chinese men established the Chinese Laundry in St. Paul and the Lung Wing Laundry in Minneapolis (Holmquist, 1981). Of course, there were foreign students who came here for higher education, beginning more than a century ago. For instance, the first group of Chinese students attended the University of Minnesota in 1914 (China 100, 2014). Asian populations can be seen in almost every corner in the state nowadays. Below, we present information on the Asian populations of Minnesota and then information on the Northfield township.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>
