Even though indian and tamil people have migrated all over the world, the power of indian people in America is a special kind. When you tell anything with statistics, it is very close to the truth, and this is how Goodritons is going to approach this matter. The indian diaspora community living in America has emerged as a prosperous and influential community in the country. Compared to other countries, the quality of life and income-earning rate of indians in America are at their peak.

 Indian population in America: There are a total of 51 lakh people of indian origin in America, including all sections, including those born in india and those born to indian parents in America. These 5.5 million people are just 1.5% of the US population, but the share of Indian-origin people in US tax revenue is 5-6%. The main reason for the high share of tax revenue despite being less in population share is that most indians in the US work in high-income and professional sectors.

Education and Professional Career: education is the foundation of the strength and success of the indian community in the US. As a matter of fact, about 78% of the Indian-origin people in the US have a degree or higher. This is 2 times more than the national average of 36% of the American population. The educational achievement of indians translates into success in their professional careers. Because 76% of them work in management, business, science, and the arts.
Corporate success: Indian-origin people are CEOs of 16 of the Fortune 500 companies, and indians have founded about 72 unicorns. There are a total of 648 unicorns in the US, of which 11% were founded by Indians.

 Education, hospitality: Every year, 2.7 lakh indian students go to the US, which contributes about $ 10 billion annually to the US education sector. Also, 60% of the hotels in the US are managed by indian immigrants, which shows the dominance of indians in the hospitality sector. In the world of education, about 22,000 Indian-origin teachers work in US higher education institutions, which strengthens the education sector.

Trade and Investment: The trade volume between india and the US is estimated to be $51 billion in 2022-23. Since 2000, about $63 billion in foreign investment has come to india from the US. Family and social connections: Compared to many other nationalities in the US, indians have strong family values. This is explained by the fact that 70% of indians in the US are married, and 20% live in multi-generational households. This family connection helps indians to maintain their cultural roots and not lose their identity while living in a new country. The contribution of indian immigrants strengthens the US economy. No one can deny that if indians are removed from the growth of the US, there will be a big gap. This is a dream, a story of hard work. This did not come easily; it is because of the hard work of people who have gone to America over time that we have become an unstoppable force in the country today.
