I agree with most of your comment, but I do think you're discounting the ability for those hubs to exist elsewhere a bit. Dallas, Houston and surprisingly Atlanta all have really robust areas where you can see and feel the cultural influence of immigrants that live in the area. It extends to the buildings that are built, shops that are run and overall feeling of the neighborhoods. They're not all in the city for sure, and none of them are as big or as connected as areas you would find in say Orange County but still quite strong and really add to the cities themselves.

Yes totally didn't mean to discount it. It is getting quite diverse and growing more so everyday - which is a good thing. I'd only point out - for a first generation immigrant with a tech salary and tech stock options - all things being equal - I'd imagine the vast preference would be to go where there are 99ranches and Din Tai Fungs and high end chaat at a density where its in proximity to high end housing versus being in the traditional "ethnic" end of town. It will change for sure as tech slowly disperses - so it should be fun to watch.
