Introduction to Chinatown: The earliest Chinatown in New York was formed in 1890. In 1848, three Taishan natives, two men and one woman, arrived in the United States on the sailing ship "Wandering Eagle". They were the first Chinese to immigrate to the United States. By 1851, the number of Wuyi people who had immigrated to the west coast of the United States reached 25,000, and the number increased year by year thereafter. These ancestors worked in mines, farms, cigar factories, and lumber factories to do jobs that white Americans were unwilling to do. In 1880, there was an economic crisis in the United States. White people lost their jobs in large numbers, but Chinese people were able to find jobs. As a result, white people resented the Chinese and accused the Chinese of stealing their jobs. As a result, California passed the Chinese Exclusion Act, and the marginalized and persecuted Chinese migrated to the east coast of the United States. The first Chinese who entered New York settled in Mott Street (Jungle Street) and Park Street (Park Street) in the southeastern district of Lower Manhattan. As the population gradually increased, Chinatown was formed in 1890. The English name of Chinatown is Chinatown, which means Chinatown.
