Executive Order 9066 primarily targeted Japanese Americans on the West Coast due to wartime fears and racial prejudice following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. The West Coast had a significant population of Japanese Americans, which made them more visible and perceived as a potential security risk.

Other regions with smaller Japanese American populations were less affected, as there was less perceived risk and political pressure to implement such drastic measures.
