History of Indian Americans in Metro Detroit

A 2013 report by the Global Detroit and Data Driven Detroit stated that of the immigrant ethnic groups to Metro Detroit, the largest segment is the Indian population.[1] As of 2012, the Indian populations of Farmington Hills and Troy are among the twenty largest Indian communities in the United States.[2] As of the 2000 U.S. Census there were 39,527 people with origins from post-partition India (Indians and Indian Americans) in Metro Detroit,[3] making them the largest Asian ethnic group in the Wayne County-Macomb County-Oakland County tri-county area. People of those origins are found throughout Metro Detroit, with the majority being in Oakland County.[4] Across the border, there is an equally large and growing Indian Canadian community in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.[5]
