Abstract
This article presents an historical survey of the immigration of Korean people to the United States between the years 1901-1971. For his demographic analysis of the immigrant population, Kim, using data from the 1970 United States census, describes age and sex composition, place of residence in the U.S. (including urban/rural concentrations), occupational status at the time of entry, and the number of Koreans who have obtained U.S. citizenship in proportion to the total number of immigrants.
