“When I first came to New York and settled with my family in Ridgewood, Queens in 1996, there were less than handful of Nepali Americans who live here, own business and houses. I am also proud to say that Ridgewood Nepalese community is one of the most organized groups among Nepali Americans in New York. In Ridgewood, we make every effort to support our community members and neighbours; we offer varieties services such as finding housing for new comers to information and education about financial planning, tax services, language services, health screenings, etc. for community members and language and cultural classes for our American born Nepali young children. We give great importance to maintaining our unique Nepali culture and traditions. After all, mosaics of world cultures make our city unique and the greatest in the world.”
