By the 1920&#8217;s many of the Chinese began settling and building businesses around Rockwell Avenue and East 22<sup>nd<\/sup> which is now considered AsiaTown. By the 1950s, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Vietnamese groups began migrating to Cleveland. According to the 2010 U.S. Census, the MidTown region (of which Asiatown is a large portion) has a self-identified Asian population of 39 percent, well above the national and state average.<\/p>\n<p>Filming started in Summer of 2020.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the 60mins documentary video.<\/p>\n<p>(<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/mgBixzyzXD4?si=zEJAoTgMMdkJ9wUm\">Click here if video do not appear<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>The complete video is available as rental\/for sale, proceed to go back to OCAGC. <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/ondemand\/historyofcleveland\">Click here for more information<\/a>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-837472e elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"837472e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=mgBixzyzXD4&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1172,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-episodes"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
