Indian community

Native American settlement

Indian community refers to a group of people of Indian descent living in a particular area, or the social network connecting them.

The term appears in two contexts: communities of people from India living abroad the Indian community in London, and Native American or Indigenous communities in the Americas the Indian community on the reservation.

Context usually clarifies which is meant.
