About half or more of the Chinese ethnic people in the U.S. in the 1980s had roots in Taishan, Guangdong,[10] a city in southern China near the major city of Guangzhou. In general, much of the Chinese population before the 1990s consisted of Cantonese or Taishanese-speaking people from southern China, predominately from Guangdong province. During the 1980s, more Mandarin-speaking immigrants from Northern China and Taiwan immigrated to the U.S.[11] In the 1990s, a large wave of Fujianese immigrants arrived in the US, many illegally, particularly in the NYC area.[12] The Chinese population in much of the 1800s and 1890s was almost entirely contained to the Western U.S., especially California and Nevada, as well as New York City.[citation needed]
