“Suburban Asian Supermarkets Represent a Trend”
September 25, 2009 by Chinatown Blogger.
Suburban Asian supermarkets reflect “an ongoing trend, which is that Asians no longer just settle in urban areas,’’ and they also highlight the “economic and social contributions of Asians.’’ An article from the Boston Globe today, “An entire aisle just for noodles, area’s first H Mart Korean store debuts on the opening of H Mart”
As the Asian American population continues to move to the suburbs, how will this affect or change Boston Chinatown for the future? Your comments and feedback are always welcomed.
