Queens - Most Diverse Place on the Planet.
Here is some of the background information about Queens.

Queens is the largest in area and the second most populous of the five boroughs of New York City. The borough of Queens is coterminous with Queens County in New York State, USA. It is home to New York City's two major airports (John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia), the New York Mets baseball team, the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (home of the annual U.S. Open), Silvercup Studios, Flushing Meadows Corona Park, and Queens Center (the most profitable per-square-foot mall in America).

The borough of Queens is furthermore the second most ethnically diverse county in the United States behind Miami-Dade County, Florida. As of the 2005 American Community Survey, immigrants comprise 47.6% of its residents. With a population of 2.2 million it is the second most populous borough in New York City (behind Brooklyn) and the tenth most populous county in the United States. The 2.2 million figure is the highest historical population for the borough.

Queens is both a New York State county on Long Island (along with Nassau and Suffolk Counties to the east and Brooklyn, or Kings County, to the south and west) and a borough of New York City (the others are Brooklyn, the Bronx, Staten Island, and Manhattan). Queens is named for Queen Catherine of Braganza (1638-1705), the wife of King Charles II of England (1630-1685).

Queens was one of the original counties of New York, formed (and named) in 1683, by the British. It included the land that is now Queens and Nassau counties and part of Suffolk. Adjoining Brooklyn was named King County in honor of King Charles II.

From 1664 to 1683 the British had administered the territory that would be Queens as part of colonial Yorkshire, which included Staten Island, Long Island, and Westchester.

Prior to 1664 the Dutch had the area as part of the New Netherlands.

And before the Dutch arrived, Native Americans had many names, some lost and other known, for the areas of Queens. The Algonquian term Sewanhacky is noted in Dutch colonial documents as the name of western Long Island.
