Asian-Americans make the most money, on average, of any racial group in the United States. Asian-Americans are also the best-educated racial group, say new statistics released by the U.S. Census Bureau. 54 percent of Asians in the United States have at least a bachelor's degree. In the U.S., 33 percent of the total population has a college degree. Asian-Americans immigrants, and their children born in the U.S., who come from East Asia, Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent account for about 6 percent of the U.S. population. People of Chinese, Filipino, Indian, Vietnamese, Korean and Japanese origin make up the majority of the Asian-American population. Asian-Americans have had success, in part, because of U.S. immigration policy. Experts say that U.S. immigration policy favors highly educated immigrants from Asian countries.
