Ukrainian American

Ukrainian Americans ((ウクライナ語:Українці Америки, Українці у США); translit. ''Ukrayintsi Ameriki'', ''Ukrayintsi u SShA'') are Americans who are of Ukrainian ancestry. According to U.S. census estimates, in 2006 there were 961,113 Americans of Ukrainian descent representing 0.33% of the American population.〔 The Ukrainian population of the United States is thus the second largest outside the former Soviet Union; only Canada has a larger Ukrainian community. According to the 2000 U.S. census, the metropolitan areas with the largest numbers of Ukrainian Americans are: New York City with 160,000 Ukrainians, Philadelphia with 60,000 Ukrainians, Chicago with 46,000 Ukrainians, Los Angeles with 34,000, Detroit with 33,000 Ukrainians, Cleveland with 26,000 and Indianapolis with 19,000.〔http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/tableservices/jsf/pages/productview.xhtml?pid=ACS_10_1YR_DP02&prodType=table〕〔(Ukrainians in the US: Statistics 2000. )〕
==History==

The first Ukrainian immigrant to America, Ivan Bohdan, sailed with John Smith to the Jamestown colony in 1607. Bohdan met captain Smith during the time when the latter had fought the Turks, was captured, and escaped captivity by fleeing through Ukraine, Romania, Hungary, and other countries.〔''The Ukrainians in America: 1608-1975.'' (1976). Compiled and Edited by Vladimir Wertsman. New York: Oceana Publications.〕 Large scale Ukrainian immigration to America did not begin, however, until the 1880s.〔Paul Robert Magocsi. (1996). ''A History of Ukraine''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press.〕
The largest wave of Ukrainians came in the early 1990s, after the fall of the Soviet Union. A large number those emigrating from Ukraine after the fall of the Soviet Union were Jewish and Protestant. Many Ukrainians of the newest immigration wave migrated to large cities and regional centers, creating ethnic enclaves. In addition, many Ukrainian Americans have come by way of Canada, which has a larger Ukrainian presence.
Ukrainian Americans living in Northern New Jersey and the remainder of the Northeastern United States have long been politically vocal about Ukrainian affairs, often traveling to Washington, D.C. to express their concerns.
On September 21, in Bloomingdale, near Chicago, the first North American monument to the "Heavenly Hundred" was solemnly unveiled.
