Not surprising. I guess it happens everywhere.
Out here, you visit some obscure town, and as you get off the train, you realize everyone is speaking Korean or Mandarin.
I guess it's a combination of family moving near family, and friends moving near friends (sometimes coupled with political ties -- e.g. the Hmong population in Minnesota).
All of a sudden, you have an ethnically homogenous city in a foreign (to them, historically) country.
