Bangladeshis
Bangladeshi Americans (Bengali: বাংলাদেশী মার্কিনী, romanized: Bangladeshī Markinī) are American citizens with Bangladeshi origin or descent.[10] Bangladeshi Americans are predominantly Bengali-speaking Muslims. Since the early 1970s, Bangladeshi immigrants have arrived in significant numbers to become one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in the U.S. New York City is home to two-thirds of the Bangladeshi American population. Meanwhile, Paterson, New Jersey; Atlantic City, New Jersey;[11] and Monroe Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey are also home to notable Bangladeshi communities.[12]
History
[edit]
Immigrants from present-day Bangladesh have been in the United States since at least the First World War, originating from East Bengal of British India.[13]
Since the independence of Bangladesh in 1971, immigration to the United States grew slowly but steadily through the 1970s and 1980s. Over 10,000 Bangladeshis have immigrated to the United States annually.[3] Many of the migrants settled in urban areas. New York City is home to two-thirds of the Bangladeshi population in the United States. Other cities including Paterson, Atlantic City, and Monroe Township, New Jersey; Buffalo, New York; Washington, D.C.; Los Angeles; Boston; Chicago; and Detroit.
In New York, it was estimated that 15,000 Bangladeshis resided in the city in the early 1980s. During the late 1970s, some Bangladeshis moved from New York City to Detroit, and Atlantic City for jobs. Homes to prominent communities of other Muslim Americans, in search of better work opportunities and an affordable cost of living,[14] but most have since returned from Detroit to New York and to New Jersey, in hope of starting a new community and a peaceful life. In Atlantic City, Bangladeshis established an association, and two smaller Melas are held in June/July and in August.
The Los Angeles Bangladesh Association was created in 1971, and there were 500 members of the Texas Bangladesh Association in 1997. The Bangladeshi population in Dallas was 5,000 people in 1997, which was large enough to hold the Baishakhi Mela event.
Baishakhi Mela events have been held in major American cities such as New York City; Paterson, New Jersey; Atlantic City; Washington, D.C.; and Los Angeles; as the Bangladeshi population continues to increase in these cities.[15] The third and largest wave of arrivals came in the 1990s and 2000s. Because of the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, professional and educational criteria were not used. Most Bangladeshi immigrants took blue-collar work such as taxi driving and restaurant help.[16]
Demography
[edit]The New York City area, including New York City, Central New Jersey, as well as Long Island in New York, is home to the largest Bangladeshi-American population.[17][18][19]Aerial view of single family homes nestled within natural surroundings of trees and greenbelts in affluent suburban Monroe Township, Middlesex County, New Jersey. Bangladeshis value Monroe's proximity to both New York City and top-ranked Princeton University. The Bangladeshi diaspora in this township constitute the fastest-growing Bangladeshi population in the Western Hemisphere.
States, cities, and metro areas by population
[edit]
There are 272,338 Bangladeshi in the country,[20] whereas 256,681 of them are reported as Bangladeshi origin, and the rest are reported as mixed.[21] Bangladeshi Americans are largely concentrated in metropolitan areas in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Great Lakes regions of the country, especially working-class neighborhoods and suburbs. There are smaller concentrations in states such as Texas, California, and Nevada.[22]

Major communities
[edit]
New York City
[edit]
New York City is home to the largest Bangladeshi community in the United States, receiving by far the highest legal permanent resident Bangladeshi immigrant population.[3] The Bangladeshi-born immigrant population has become one of the fastest growing in New York City, counting over 93,000 by 2011 alone.[24][25] The city's Bangladeshi community is prominent in Jackson Heights, Queens. 74th Street has most of the Bangladeshi grocery stores and clothing stores in Jackson Heights. The Bangladesh Plaza hosts numerous Bangladeshi businesses and cultural events. Recently, one part of Jackson Heights has become an open platform for all sorts of protests and activism. The adjacent neighborhoods of Woodside and Elmhurst in Queens have also drawn Bangladeshi Americans.
In the 1960s, Bangladeshi Americans developed the Manhattan restaurant area called Curry Row.[26] Since the 1970s, thousands of Bangladeshis were able to legally migrate to the U.S. through the Diversity Visa Program lottery. Centered on 169th Street and Hillside Avenue, Jamaica, has become a popular draw due to the large number of Bangladeshi restaurants and grocery stores. Sagar Restaurant, Gharoa, Deshi Shaad, Kabir's Bakery, and other stores in Queens are attractions for the Bangladeshi community from throughout New York City. The largest numbers of Bangladeshi Americans now live in the Queens neighborhoods of Jamaica, Jackson Heights, Hollis, and Briarwood. Bangladeshi enclaves have also emerged in Parkchester, Bronx; Ozone Park, Queens; Kensington, Brooklyn and City Line, Brooklyn.[27][28] More affluent Bangladeshis have relocated to Long Island, largely due to many Bangladeshi-owned pharmaceutical companies that also employ many Bangladeshis there. However, a relatively small number of Bangladeshis have moved from New York City to cities such as Buffalo, New York,[29] and Hamtramck, Michigan, mainly due to low costs of living there.
New York statistics
[edit]
1990 census:
Total population: 10,000 (7,592 in New York State and 29,000 in total in the United States).[30]
Highest concentrations: Queens—2,567 people, and Brooklyn—1,313.[31]
In Manhattan, Bangladeshis formed a small enclave on 6th Street. Larger numbers lived in the Astoria area of Queens.[32]
This section needs to be updated. Please help update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information.(January 2026)
Bangladeshi neighborhoods in New York City include Jamaica, Jamaica Hills, Briarwood, Jackson Heights, Woodside, Elmhurst, Hollis, Queens Village, Hunters Point, Long Island City, East Harlem, Bayside, Hillcrest, West Maspeth and Astoria in Queens; Kensington and City Line in Brooklyn;[27] and Parkchester and Castle Hill in The Bronx.[33][34] Smaller Little Bangladesh communities can be found in Philadelphia; Washington, D.C.; Detroit; and Los Angeles.
Paterson, New Jersey
[edit]Paterson, New Jersey, in the New York City area, is home to the second largest Bangladeshi American population, after New York City.[18]
Paterson, New Jersey, in the New York City area, is home to a significant and growing Bangladeshi American community. Many Bangladeshi grocery stores and clothing stores operate in the emerging Little Bangladesh on Union Avenue and on nearby streets in Paterson, as well as a branch of a subsidiary of Sonali Bank, the largest state-owned financial institution in Bangladesh. The Masjid Al-Ferdous mosque is also located on Union Avenue. Mohammed Akhtaruzzaman was ultimately certified as the winner of the 2012 City Council election in the Second Ward, making him northern New Jersey's first Bangladeshi-American elected official. The current Second Ward Councilman is Bangladeshi Shahin Khalique, who defeated Akhtaruzzaman in 2016 as well as in 2020. Khalique has largely stimulated growth and advancement of the Bengali community in Paterson.[35]
On October 11, 2014, a groundbreaking ceremony was conducted for the Shohid Minar Monument in West Side Park in Paterson. The monument pays tribute to those killed in Pakistan in 1952 while protesting the country's ban on the use of Bangladeshis' native language Bangla (বাংলা). The monument is modeled after similar monuments in Bangladesh, according to the World Glam Organization, the Bangladeshi cultural group working on the Paterson project. The Shohid Minar Monument was completed and unveiled in 2015.[36] This project reflected the increasing influence of Paterson's growing Bangladeshi community as reported in The Record.[37]
Community and economic issues
[edit]
Per capita income
[edit]
In 2014, identified by factfinder census, when Americans per capita income was divided by ethnic groups Bangladeshi Americans were revealed to have a per capita income of only $18,027, below the American average of $25,825.[38]
Median household income
[edit]
In 2015, Bangladeshi Americans had an estimated median household income of $49,800, lower than the overall American median of $53,600.[39]
In 2019, Bangladeshi Americans had a median household income of $59,500.[40]
Poverty
[edit]
In a 2013, NPR discussion with a member of the Economic Policy Institute and co-author of the book The Myth of the Model Minority Rosalind Chou who is also a professor of sociology. One of them stated that "When you break it down by specific ethnic groups, the Hmong, the Bangladeshi, they have poverty rates that rival the African-American poverty rate."[41]
Education
[edit]
In the 2000 U.S. census, 57,412 people reporting having Bangladeshi origin.[42] In 2015, it was reported that 16% of the Bangladeshi population in the US had at least a bachelor's degree.[43] Almost 22% of Bangladeshis over the age of 25 earned at least a bachelor's degree, compared to less than 25% of the U.S. population.
Politics
[edit]
Bangladeshi Americans strongly favor the Democratic Party. Republican President Richard Nixon's support of Pakistan during Bangladesh's struggle for independence partly swayed Bangladeshis to the Democratic Party.[44] In the 2012 U.S. presidential election, 96% of Bangladeshi Americans voted to reelect Barack Obama.[45] In the 2016 U.S. presidential election, 90% of Bangladeshi Americans voted for Hillary Clinton.[46] In the 2020 U.S. presidential election, 91% of Bangladeshi Americans voted for Joe Biden.[47]
In recent decades, the Bangladeshi-American community has become more active in local and national politics, with many Bangladeshi Americans seeking office or forming political organizations to better represent those within or outside the community who share similar goals.[48][49][50]
Culture
[edit]
Bangladeshi Americans are highly visible in medicine, engineering, business, finance and information technology. Bangladeshi Americans have introduced Bengali cuisine through several Bangladeshi markets and stores in the U.S. Some of the largest are in New York City; Paterson, New Jersey; Central New Jersey; Washington, D.C.; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Los Angeles, California.
Languages
[edit]
Bangladeshi Americans often retain their native languages such as Bengali, Sylheti (prevalent in Bangladesh's Sylhet Division) as well as Chittagonian (prevalent in Bangladesh's Chittagong and Cox's Bazar Districts) and run many programs to nourish their mother tongues. Many also speak regional dialects of Bengali, such as Noakhailla (prevalent in Bangladesh's Noakhali District), among many other dialects from various regions.
Religion
[edit]
Before the colonization of South Asia by the Turkic and subsequent British Empires, folk religion in villages in the Bengal region incorporated elements of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam to varying degrees. Leading up to the modern period, Bengali families increasingly began identifying with a single religious community. In North America, Bangladeshis residing in rural areas often practice their faith at home and make special trips during community holidays like Ramadan and Durga Puja. In cities such as Detroit and New York, Bangladeshi Muslims attend religious activities in their local mosques. Bangladeshi Americans have taken on leadership roles at major Hindu temples in the U.S.

^Those are traditions and denominations that trace their history back to the Protestant Reformation or otherwise heavily borrow from the practices and beliefs of the Protestant Reformers.
^This denomination is the result of a merger between Lutheran, German Reformed, Congregational and Restorationist churches.
^ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzaaabacadaeafagahaiajakPart of the National Association of Evangelicals
^ abcdThis refers to the denomination's heritage and not necessarily to the language in which the services are conducted in.
^This is a reformed synod within the United Church of Christ that is distinct in heritage, doctrine and practice from the rest of the denomination.
^ abOutside the Anglican Communion
^ abcdefThis is more of a movement then an institutionalized denomination.
^Denominations that don't fit in the subsets mentioned above.
^Those are traditions and denominations that trace their origin back to the Great Awakenings and/or are joined together by a common belief that Christianity should be restored along the lines of what is known about the apostolic early church.
^The Holiness movement is an interdenominational movement that spreads over multiple traditions (Methodist, Quakers, Anabaptist, Baptist, etc.). However, here are mentioned only those denominations that are part of Restorationism as well as the Holiness movement, but are not part of any other Protestant tradition.
