　　Chinese Americans today have higher incomes than Americans in general and

　　higher occupational status.The Chinese have risen to this position despite some

　　of the harshest discrimination and violence faced by any immigrants to the

　　United States in the history of this country.Long confined to a narrow range of

　　occupations they succeeded in those occupations and then spread out into other

　　areas in later years, when opportunities finally opened up for them.Today much

　　of the Chinese prosperity is due to the simple fact that they work more and have

　　more (usually better) education than others.Almost one out of five Chinese

　　families has three or more income earners compared to one out of thirteen for

　　Puerto Ricans, one out of ten among American Indians, and one out of eight among

　　Whites.When the Chinese advantages in working and educational are held constant,

　　they have no advantage over other Americans.That is in a Chinese Family with a

　　given number of people working and with a given amount of education by the head

　　of the family, the income is not only about average for such families, and offer

　　a little less than average.

　　While Chinese Americans as a group are prosperous and well-educated

　　Chinatowns are pockets of poverty, and illiteracy is much higher among the

　　Chinese than among Americans in general.Those paradoxes are due to sharp

　　internal differences.Descendants of the Chinese Americans who emigrated long ago

　　from Toishan Province have maintained Chinese values and have added

　　acculturation to American society with remarkable success.More recent Hong Kong

　　Chinese are from more diverse cultural origins, and acquired western values and

　　styles in Hong Kong, without having acquired the skills to proper and support

　　those aspirations in the American economy.Foreign-born Chinese men in the United

　　States are one-fourth lower incomes than native-born Chinese even though the

　　foreign-born have been in the United States an average of seventeen years.While

　　the older Hong Kong Chinese work tenaciously to sustain and advance themselves,

　　the Hong Kong Chinese youths often react with resentment and antisocial

　　behavior, including terrorism and murder.The need to maintain tourism in

　　Chinatown causes the Chinese leaders to mute or downplay these problems as much

　　as possible.
