Where Hawaiian-Descended People Live in the U.S. (2010 Census)

According to the 2010 U.S. Census, over 650,000 people of Native Hawaiian descent resided in the United States. While the majority live in Hawaii, significant communities exist on the mainland:

• California — Largest mainland population
• Nevada — Second-largest, particularly Las Vegas area
• Washington — Third-largest, concentrated in Seattle/Tacoma region

Smaller populations are distributed across other states. Note: These figures include individuals identifying as Native Hawaiian alone or in combination with other races. More recent data from the 2020 Census may show different distributions.
