Suva is a multiracial and multicultural city. [[Fijians|Indigenous Fijians]] and [[Indians in Fiji|Indo-Fijians]], the two principal ethnic groups of Fiji, comprise the bulk of Suva's population, and the city is home to most of Fiji's ethnic minority populations, which include Rotumans, Lauans, Rambians, [[Europeans in Oceania|Europeans]] (known as ''Kaivalagi''), part-Europeans (of European and Fijian descent, known as “Kailoma") and [[Chinese in Fiji|Chinese]], among others. The most widely spoken language is English, but [[Fijian language|Fijian]], [[Fiji Hindi]], and other languages are also spoken by their respective communities.

Suva's inhabitants are representative of all the major indigenous Pacific groups: it is sometimes referred to as the “[[New York City|New York]] of the Pacific". The city has a reputation as a major economic centre in the region and is the site of [[University of the South Pacific]]'s main campus. This has led to an influx of Pacific migrants, who study, work, and live in the city and its boroughs.
