Joe Salvo’s talk was very interesting and enlightening. I had never really thought much about the changing demographics, because after all, what did it have to do with me? But then I realized that it was happening right in my neighborhood. It used to be heavily dominated by Caucasians, but now I see more and more Asians. There is also a ‘chinatown’ where I live, in Brooklyn. It’s a couple of avenues away from where I live, but nevertheless I slowly see more Asian residents around the area out of Brooklyn’s own chinatown. I thought it was also interesting that Salvo kept saying that the ‘younger’ generation was moving out of places like Chinatown in Manhattan. It makes sense, since after all, they might have the means and ability to and aren’t confined to one area like the older generation who might not be able to speak English as well as the younger generation.
