In Rowland Heights (where I live), the Los Angeles County Branch there has the most visits of any branch.  45,000 visitors a month and has the 2nd highest circulation in the county system (made up of 85 other libraries).  Its also one of the smaller libraries.  Rowland Heights is a surburban Chinatown.

My guess is the Chinese focus on education.  I see a lot of students studying at the library, and my daughter loved to visit there when she was younger (we would come home with stacks of books).
