Mic drop...
Actually, in the case of NY and LA, it's actually very close, oh and the Bay Area crushes them both as far as Asian visibility.

Asian Population of all Racial Combinations, 2016
Los Angeles CSA 2,792,000...14.9% of the total population
New York CSA 2,625,000...11.0% of the total population
San Francisco CSA 2,384,000...27.2% of the total population

Asian Only Population, 2016
Los Angeles CSA 2,474,000...13.2% of the total population
New York CSA 2,377,000...10.0% of the total population
San Francisco CSA 2,106,000...24.0% of the total population

Born in Asia, 2016
New York CSA 1,669,000...7.0% of the total population
Los Angeles CSA 1,619,000...8.6% of the total population
San Francisco CSA 1,359,000...15.5% of the total population

And while Asians as a race might be more visible in Honolulu, the proportion of Asian immigrants against the total population is exactly the same as the Bay Area:

Born in Asia, 2016
San Francisco CSA 1,359,000...15.5% of the total population
Island of Oahu 154,000...15.5% of the total population

I think people are giving Honolulu a little too much credit as far as ' direct/ first hand connection' to Asia.
Population Age 5+ that Speaks Only English, 2016
Island of Oahu 71%
New York CSA 63%
San Francisco CSA 56%
Los Angeles 49%

socioeconomically speaking, it's the Bay Area.

Asian Households, 2016
Los Angeles CSA 787,539
New York CSA 743,557
San Francisco CSA 680,545
Island of Oahu 138,191

Aggregate Asian Household Income, 2016
San Francisco CSA $94.181 Billion
New York CSA $88.010 Billion
Los Angeles CSA $81.257 Billion
Island of Oahu $14.136 Billion

Median Asian Household Income, 2016
San Francisco CSA $110,612
New York CSA $86,000
Island of Oahu $81,432
Los Angeles CSA $76,651

Asian Households Earning $200,000+, 2016
San Francisco CSA 153,697
