There is a long history of Thai students at the university, with approximately 700 UW-Madison Thai
graduates.

The UW-Madison has one of the largest Thai student populations of any U.S. college or university.

UW-Madison Thai graduates are prominent civic and business leaders in Thailand

Areas of greatest concentration
Los Angeles, California has the largest Thai population outside of Thailand. Roughly 66% percent of all Thai Americans live in Los Angeles. It is also home to the world's first and only Thai Town. In 2002 there was an estimated 80,000+ Thai immigrants living in Los Angeles. Thai Chinese are also included in the population. Because of this, Los Angeles is sometimes referred to as Thailand's 77th province.

Note that both Bangkok and Los Angeles are known as the City of Angels.

However, there are Thai communities spread throughout the US. Other cities with sizable Thai populations include Houston, Texas and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

But it says LA has the largest concentration outside of Thailand,,so maybe thats it then..
