From the 2010 US Census as found at www.asian-nation.org/interracial.shtml
Percent of US Raised Asian Females (1.5 generation in the US or greater) Married to Blacks by Nationality
(for example, 4% of all US Raised Filipino Married Females in the US in 2010 were with Black Men)
Filipino 4.0%
Asian Indian 1.8%
Korean 1.6%
Chinese 0.7%
Japanese 0.7%
Vietnamese 0.5%
Percent of Foreign Raised Asian Females (First generation in the US) Married to Blacks by Nationality
(for example, 2.3% of all Foreign raised first generation Filipino Married Females in the US in 2010 were with Black Men)
Japanese 3.4%
Filipino 2.3%
Korean 1.3%
Asian Indian 0.4%
Chinese 0.2%
Vietnamese 0.1%
The higher Japanese and Filipino foreign raised marriages are both due to US military presence in these countries where US Black soldiers married Asian women and brought them back to the US with them. The same happened with US white soldiers as well.
Also the same source found that 5.0% of all US Asian women cohabiting with a member of the opposite sex were with Black men. These numbers were not broken down by nationality, but it appears that US Asian women cohabit with Black men at a higher rate than marrying Black men which is not necessarily surprising.
Also interesting that the US raised Asian women are more likely to be married to Black men than their foreign raised first generation Asian women counterparts in every nationality except Japanese. This somewhat implies that Asian women generally warm up to marrying Black men once they live in the US for awhile - except for Japanese who show a relatively high rate of marriage to Blacks in their first generation and then marry Blacks at a much lower rate after they have lived in the US for awhile.
