Artesia is notable for its large Indian-American community and its collection of Indian businesses. Proposals have often been made to designate a portion of the city as "Little India" (along the lines of Little Saigon in nearby Westminster and Garden Grove), but opposition from other ethnicities in the city and from within the Indian community itself has so far stymied such a measure.
