History of the Chinese Americans in Los Angeles

There is a historic population of Chinese Americans in Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Metropolitan Area. As of 2010, there were 393,488 Chinese Americans in Los Angeles County, 4.0% of the county's population, and 66,782 Chinese Americans in the city of Los Angeles (1.8% of the total population).〔(American FactFinder ), U.S. Census
==History==
The historian William Mason stated that the first Chinese in Los Angeles were Ah Luce and Ah Fou, who arrived in 1850.〔Estrada, p. (72 ).〕 In his memoirs, Harris Newmark stated that the first Chinese person was the servant of his uncle, Joseph Newmark.〔Estrada, p. (71 )-(72 ).〕
The Chinese massacre of 1871 caused deaths of Chinese individuals in Los Angeles. By 1900 there were about 3,000 Chinese in the city. Most residents of the old Chinatown came from Sanyi (San Yup) and Siyi (Sze Yup) in Guangdong. The Old Chinatown began to decline as more Chinese left. Many moved to East Adams around the 1920s and 1930s. The Los Angeles Union Passenger Terminal, built in 1933, was built over much of the former Old Chinatown, so a new Chinatown was established after Peter SooHoo Sr. and Herbert Lapham, an agent for the Santa Fe Railway, negotiated a land purchase for what would become the new Chinatown.〔Cho and the Chinese Historical Society of Southern California, ''Chinatown in Los Angeles'', p. (7 ).〕
Christine Sterling, a civic leader, developed "China City," a tourist attraction which opened in 1938. Chinese working there also lived there. After two fires, "China City" decayed and was gone by the 1950s. To make way for the Hollywood Freeway, almost all of the remainder of old Chinatown was destroyed in 1951. The remaining portions were parts of Sanchez Alley and Garnier Block.〔Cho and the Chinese Historical Society of Southern California, ''Chinatown in Los Angeles'', p. (8 ).〕
More Chinese, especially those from Hong Kong, immigrated to Los Angeles after the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 (Hart-Cellar Act) passed. By the end of the 20th Century many Chinese began moving to suburbs such as Monterey Park, Alhambra, Arcadia, and Rosemead.〔 By 2013, large numbers of ethnic Chinese moved into communities in the San Gabriel Valley, including San Gabriel, San Marino, and Walnut.〔Medina, Jennifer. "(New Suburban Dream Born of Asia and Southern California )." ''The New York Times''. April 28, 2013. Retrieved on March 11, 2014.〕
