ccording to 2015-2019 American Community Survey data, 1,323 New Zealanders live in New York City, many of whom came to the United States for higher education or employment. NYC's Kiwi Club brings the community together for events like rugby watching and Māori concerts. New Zealanders have opened a number of restaurants, including Tribeca's Musket Room and Park Slope's Kiwiana, sometime hubs for Kiwi New Yorkers speaking their distinctive variety of English.

An urban language map

Welcome to Languages of New York City, a free and interactive digital map of the world’s most linguistically diverse metropolitan area.

All data, unless otherwise specified, is from the Endangered Language Alliance (ELA), based on information from communities, speakers, and other sources.

The map is a work in progress and a partial snapshot, focused on significant sites for Indigenous, minority, and endangered languages. Larger languages are represented selectively. To protect the privacy of speakers, some locations are slightly altered. Social media users, note that LANGUAGEMAP.NYC works best in a separate browser. We apologize that the map may not be fully accessible to all users, including the visually impaired.

This map was created by the Mapping Linguistic Diversity team, with core support from the Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies and the Endangered Language Alliance. Please send feedback!
