Pakistani Americans are individuals of Pakistani descent who live in the United States. They may have been born in Pakistan or have parents who immigrated from Pakistan. This community has grown significantly since the 1960s, contributing to the cultural and economic landscape of the U.S. Many Pakistani Americans are involved in various professions, including medicine, engineering, and business. They often maintain cultural traditions, such as celebrating Eid and Independence Day, while also integrating into American society. This blend of cultures enriches both their communities and the broader American experience.
