Other than India, countries with the largest Indian population
Here is a list of nations where a sizable Indian population may be found, ranging from the dynamic cultural hub of Mauritius to the busy Indian communities in the UK, UAE, Singapore, and other places. There’s a “mini India” in most of these locations.
Mauritius
The fact that almost 70% of people in Mauritius are Indian is quite fascinating; it creates a cultural oasis where having Indian food and lively vibes seems like a perfect fit. Furthermore, Mauritius’s affordability adds even more allure, giving it a well-rounded option for a place to call home.
United Kingdom
The United Kingdom is notable for its close cultural ties to India, as evidenced by the numerous Indian eateries, shops, and cultural aspects dispersed around the country. This cultural diversity helps you feel completely at home, even when you’re far away, rather than just evoking a sense of familiarity.
Emirates of the United Arab Emirates
The Emirates is so hospitable to Indians that it is home to the largest Indian diaspora. Because of this wide diaspora, it is usual to come across an Indian who is willing to help and make you feel at home wherever you go in the Emirates.
saudi Arabia
Surprisingly, a significant portion of Indian expats reside in Saudi Arabia; they make up between 10% and 13% of the country’s overall population.
Canada
Reputably regarded as one of the greatest places to live and explore, Canada draws Indians with attractive employment prospects, high living standards, and the bonus of free healthcare facilities.
Oman
By 2023, Oman—whose Indian expat population makes up over 20% of the country’s total population—will have served as a second home to about 9 lakh Indians. The vibrant cultural tapestry of Oman is enhanced by the strong presence of Indian culture.
Singapore
Singapore goes above and beyond to embrace Indian culture, as seen by the existence of ‘Little India.’ This enclave adds to the rich diversity of Singapore’s multicultural society by acting as a central location for anything linked to India. The number of Indian residents in Singapore has increased to 7 lakhs as of 2023.
America, the United States
The Indian diaspora in the USA is the second largest in the world, with a thriving population of about 2–7 million people. Indians living in the United States find it helpful for establishing a sense of identity in this large and diverse country as well as for pursuing commercial and career goals.
