Inspired by a recent question someone else posted. Note: Tourists do not count since they are merely visiting, not staying.

I live on the edge of my city’s Chinatown (Oakland, California) and it’s an important part of the local culture. I’ve lived, worked, and studied with Chinese/Taiwanese nationals, and if they weren’t there I’d feel like something was missing.
