Hard to say but probably not. For instance I mention Hmong because they were political refugees from Laos in the 70s to various parts of the US as refugees, many of which didn’t move away after a generation. Only a few hundred thousand but they may make up a sizable amount of Asian in Minnesota and Wisconsin, not getting much say in where.
If you move by choice, as many modern immigrants do, usually you end up where there’s work, like California (and H1Bs and colleges get a ton of well educated East and South Asians). It was enough to make Irvine blue, which was astonishing!
And older generations? Probably on average close to where they originally landed (most people don’t move more than 50miles from home) but of anyone I’d see them most likely to move to like minded places, but work usually influences that more. Keep in mind, anything past 4th generation is pretty dang assimilated.
