Why are there so many Asians in Orlando? -

I just spent a day in Orlando this past weekend, and everywhere I turned, I saw Asians walking down the streets, driving down the streets, literally traveling in packs. I used to live in Orlando and I have no problems with Asians.. but where did they all come from in the last ten years?

The new money is with asian countries so they are travelling more. The asians you see in Orlando are most likely British born and living in the UK. Most of the new homes built in Orlando are bought by the British as second holiday homes and the asian community in Britain are buying property abroad as an investment.

Orlando has had for many years a large Asian community. It mainly centers around the Colonial Dr /17-92 intersection. It is called Little Vietnam.
