Hey guys, I was in Astoria for the first time this week and I saw many Italians who seemed to have moved to the US from Italy. I didnt know Astoria had such a great Italian presence. Where In NY are most Italian immigrants, excluding Italian Americans? Thanks!

Astoria is mostly Greek and most of Manhattan does not have any ethnic areas left. I would say certain parts of the Bronx near Aurthers Ave and also certain parts of Brooklyn would be where most "off the boat" italians live.

Bensonhurst/Bay Ridge, Brooklyn Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn (wealthier folks) Arthur Avenue and Bedford, Bronx BTW, it's odd to exclude folks born there from the category "Italian Americans."

I've seen a lot of Italians around my neighbourhood --Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn and Gerritsen, and perhaps Forest Hills in Queens.
