Chinese immigrants began arriving in Nevada after 1849 primarily due to the California Gold Rush, which spurred a massive influx of people seeking fortune and opportunity in the American West. Many Chinese immigrants sought work in mining and other industries, as well as in support services for the burgeoning settler population. The promise of economic opportunity and the demand for labor in mining towns attracted them to Nevada, where they contributed significantly to the region's development.
