Asian boom in Brooklyn along N-lline neighborhoods in Brooklyn, Census data shows
Dyker Heights, Borough Park and Bensonhurst have all seen an increase in the Asian population over the last ten years.

The newest Census data shows that Brooklyn's Asian population is spiking - not only in the longtime stronghold of Sunset Park - but also east into Dyker Heights, Borough Park and Bensonhurst along the transit route.
The intensity of the demographic shift is "stunning," said Steve Chung, head of the United Chinese Association of Brooklyn, which has headquarters right next to the Bay Parkway N subway stop in Bensonhurst. "It seems like every month it changes because Bensonhurst is an ideal place to raise a family," Chung said.
