On Thursday Elon Musk posted on social media about how immigrants have done extremely well in the US, revealing a statistic that shows the median household income of different ethnic groups migrating to the country.
According to this infographic, based on data from the US Census Bureau and citing only Asian immigrant communities, Indian Americans top the list with a very high median annual household income of $119,858, followed by Taiwanese Americans, Chinese Americans, and Japanese Americans.
It also indicated that Pakistani Americans have a median household income of $77,315 to rank the position fifth. The data set also featured Filipino, Korean, Cambodian, Hmong, and Vietnamese Americans’ median household incomes.

All those aforementioned groups reported median household incomes higher than White Americans, which stands at $65,902.
Musk, an immigrant himself from South Africa, reacted with a tweet: “Wow, America truly is the land of opportunity!”
Last month he reshared a stat that said Asian women in the US have higher earnings than white males. The original post he shared has since been deleted from X, a platform he owns.

Musk seemed to endorse a question that came accompanied by an info-graphic comparing the earnings of Asian women and White American men.

“The text accompanying the infographic pointed out, ‘Ever wonder why the left doesn’t mention Asian women in discussions about race and gender pay gaps? Because Asian women undermine both narratives,’ ” said Musk.
Thursday saw Musk try to drive his point home with a posted infographic.
When a fellow user on X posted the comment, “That destroys the mainstream media and the Leftist narrative,” the billionaire responded in the affirmative, saying ‘Yup’.
He added that the Left excludes Asian men and women since it goes against their narrative of a double disadvantage that women of ethnic origin face.
