Am I alone? Asian in Southern rural America

Pre-College Topics High School Life
1

<p>For most of my life I’ve lived in a small rural town with a population of less than 4000 people. I didn’t know any Asians at all - there weren’t any. It wasn’t until I enrolled at a boarding school a year ago that I realized, every other Asian kid was from a large city or nearby suburb with completely different experiences from me.</p>

<p>So what about on CC? I know there are many Asians here, but how many are rural?</p>

<p>Are you sure that there are Asians in Southern rural America? When I watch American movies, I can only see Chinese waiters in big cities. Think about it, I cannot even find any Asians in Woody Allen’s New York City obsessed movies. LOL</p>
