    Chinese immigrants came to San Francisco seeking a new start. Many left the city proper to prospect for gold, while others remained in the city, creating a tight-knit community.

    Racial and cultural tensions separated Chinatown from the rest of the city. Chinatown became known as the City-Within-a-City.
