Little India

February 16, 2024

For other uses, see Little India (disambiguation). Not to be confused with Indian colony or Urban Indian reserve.

Little India (also known as Indian Street, India Bazaar, or India Town) is an Indian or South Asian[2][3][4] sociocultural environment outside India or the Indian subcontinent. It especially refers to an area with Indian residences and a diverse collection of Indian businesses. Frequently, Little Indias have Hindu temples, mosques, and gurdwaras. They may also host celebrations of national and religious festivals and serve as gathering places for South Asians. As such, they are microcosms of India. Little Indias are often tourist attractions and are frequented by fans of Indian cuisine, Indian culture, Indian clothing, Indian music, and Indian cinema.[5][6][7]

The area is home to the highest concentration of Asian Indians in the Western Hemisphere,[1] and is a rapidly growing Indian American ethnic enclave within the New York metropolitan area.[62][1] The neighborhood is centered on Newark Avenue, between Tonnele Avenue and JFK Boulevard, and is considered to be part of the larger Journal Square District. This area has been home to the largest outdoor Navratri festivities in New Jersey as well as several Hindu temples.[63] This portion of Newark Avenue is lined with groceries including Patel Brothers and Subzi Mandi Cash & Carry,[64] electronics vendors, video stores, clothing stores, and restaurants and is one of the busier pedestrian areas of this part of the city, often stopping traffic for hours.

Oak Tree Road is a rapidly growing South Asian-focused commercial strip in Middlesex County, New Jersey.[65][66] The Oak Tree Road strip runs for about one-and-a-half miles through Edison and neighboring Iselin, New Jersey, near the area's sprawling Chinatown and Koreatown.[67] Little India in Edison and Iselin is the largest and most diverse South Asian cultural hub in the United States.[68][69] The zone is home to approximately 400 South Asian establishments and businesses, including dining, apparel and electronics retailing, and entertainment.[70][71][72][73] Around 60 Indian and Pakistani restaurants are found in the area.[74][75] In Middlesex County, election ballots are printed in Gujarati, Hindi, and Punjabi as well.[76]
