Background Info on the Filipino People

About 2 million Filipinos were living in the U.S. in 2000, an increase from 1.4 million in 1990. Much

of this growth is being fueled by immigration. Filipinos were the second largest group of immigrants admitted to the U.S. in 1995, with 50,980. And there have been at least 50,000 immigrants a year from the Philippines since 1986.

 

Filipinos are the second-largest Asian subgroup in the U.S., after Chinese. They are 19 percent of

 the Asian-American population.

 

Tagalog and English are the official languages of the Philippines. Among the 82 dialects spoken, Ilocano is predominant. Cebuano and Taglish are also spoken. Most Filipinos speak English very

 well, but 24 percent of those aged 5 and older do not. About two-thirds are fluent in a language

 other than English. (Data source: "Marketing the Mainland to Manila,
