For my ethnographic project, I am particularly interested in Chinatown, especially the change in demographics, how recent immigrants are influenced by the established social code of Chinatown, how people attain jobs and houses, and how new immigrants are interacting with American-born Chinese.

Since I live in Flushing, it would be equally interesting studying the neighborhood you settle in. This neighborhood is particular in its huge diversity of ethnicity. Rather than solely occupied by Chinese, Flushing is made up of Asians (majorly Chinese and Korean), Indians, Hispanics, and Caucasians. How different ethnic groups converge together would be my interest.
