Doing Business in U.S
The people of Kerala are known for their ingenuity and strong tradition of education. Their industrious nature has led to better opportunities worldwide and migration to every corner of the globe.
Kerala settlers first arrived in the United States in the 1960s. Most of them began their careers in the healthcare and educational sectors, as nurses, physicians, and university professors. Many first-generation Kerala settlers in the US became successful entrepreneurs in healthcare, real estate, education, medical tourism, hospitality, financial services, and IT. These businesses have created job opportunities and increased economic activity in the localities they operate in. Their legacy has been continued by second and third generations.
Today there are more than 1.5 million Kerala descendants in the USA, primarily living in New York, New Jersey,
Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. The Kerala population in the USA is growing rapidly, with many
working in the healthcare, technology, and hospitality industries. In fact, Kerala has the highest concentration of
Indian immigrants in the United States.
