Most immigrants arriving at Angel Island, particularly during the early 20th century, were from Asia, primarily China, Japan, India, and the Philippines. This influx was largely driven by economic opportunities and the search for a better life in the United States. Angel Island served as a processing station where many faced rigorous inspections and lengthy detention periods, reflecting the restrictive Immigration policies of the time.
