Filipino Americans (Filipino: Mga Pilipinong Amerikano) are Americans of Filipino ancestry. Filipinos in North America were first documented in the 16th century[8] and other small settlements beginning in the 18th century.[9] Mass migration did not begin until after the end of the Spanish–American War at the end of the 19th century, when the Philippines was ceded from Spain to the United States in the Treaty of Paris.[10][11]
As of 2022, there were almost 4.5 million Filipino Americans in the United States[12][13] with large communities in California, Hawaii, Illinois, Texas, Florida, Nevada, and the New York metropolitan area.[14] Around one third of Filipino Americans identify as multiracial or multiethnic, with 3 million reporting only Filipino ancestry and 1.5 million reporting Filipino in combination with another group.[15][16]
