Kazakh Americans (Kazakh: AQŞ-tağy qazaqtar) are Americans of full or partial Kazakh ancestry. Although in the 1960s the population of Kazakh origin in United States was estimated at 30,030, the 2000 Census put the population size at less than 300.[4] According to the American Community Survey of 2010–2012, there were more than 23,000 Kazakhstan-born people living in the United States, but not all of them were of Kazakh ethnicity.[clarification needed]
