A Little Manila (Filipino: Munting Maynila or Maliit na Maynila), also known as a Manilatown (Filipino: Bayang Maynila) or Filipinotown (Filipino: Bayang Pilipino), is a community with a large Filipino immigrant and descendant population. Little Manilas are enclaves of overseas Filipinos, a term for Filipinos living outside of the Philippines indefinitely or for a limited period. It can also include seamen and others who work outside the Philippines, but are neither permanent nor temporary residents of another country.
