Vietnamese In Seattle
The Vietnamese American community in the Seattle, Washington area is home to a large Vietnamese population of more than 55,000 residents, which is about 1.5% of the metropolitan area's population. Much of the Vietnamese community lives in the Chinatown-International District, South Seattle, and the University District. Many Vietnamese arrived post-Vietnam War during the 1970s. Several thousand arrived at Camp Murray in the 1970s. A significant, prosperous Vietnamese American business district centered at 12th Avenue and Jackson Street, immediately east of the city's considerably older Chinatown district. This Vietnamese area has not been officially designated a "Little Saigon", although a few street signs with this name have been erected. Rather, the area – along with the Chinatown district – has retained the longstanding name International District (now officially Chinatown/International District, but often just "The I.D."), dating back to the late 1940s. The predominantly C ...
