The sidewalks are crowded with Indian women in coloful traditional dress.

A woman on the corner is selling Chinese cakes. A new song from a Romanian band is playing

in a restaurant. Is it India? China? Romania? No, it's Astoria, a neighborhood in Queens, New York City. Astoria was once a mostly Greek neighborhood, but the area is changing fast.

New residents from India, Pakistan, Thailand, China, and all over the United States are moving in.

The new residents bring many traditions. These traditions blend together to make Astoria truly

multicultural. "When people are surrounded by different cultures, they adopt the things that they like," says one resident. "Here in Astoria, is isn't surprising that an Indian woman buys Mexican tortillas from a Korean grocery store. It's one of the things that makes the neighborhood special."

It isn't surprising that Astoria is becoming a very popular place to live. The rents are reasonable, the neighborhood is safe, and it has very good public transportation. There are inexpensive stores, many nice restaurants, and good frech fruit and vegetable markets. And Astoria is a comfortable place to live. Apartments are usually big and roomy. As one long-time resident says, "Why live anywhere else? Astoria has it all."
