I've been to Artesia's Little India, and to the Little Bangladesh in the middle of Koreatown which has no Bangladeshis. Outside of a few blocks in Artesia, there was a very limited South Asian presence.
How long ago was this, if I may ask? Again, I see Indians everywhere in Pasadena. If anything, they seem to be a growing population here. I'm often at Namaste Spiceland buying tea or even eating there on occasion. As well as the Indian market in San Gabriel. Indians seem to be everywhere where I live.

And I recently ate at a restaurant on Venice Blvd. that specializes in cuisine from Kerala. I'm telling, you, Indians, Indians, Indians!
