UM Professor is Lead Author for North American Jewish Data Bank Report Series
A 2010 population report from the University of Miami and the University of Connecticut releases new estimates on American Jewish Population. The new report called Jewish Population in the United States-2010 shows a greater number of Jews in the US than in Israel. While the article puts the total number of Jews in the US at around 6.5 million, the authors recognize there may be some double counting in the methodology and believe the number to be fewer than 6.4 million. Interestingly, the US report contradicts the estimate that will appear in the World Jewish Population Report to be issued in the near future in the same report series, which will show 5.3 million US Jews, explains Ira Sheskin, professor of Geography and Regional Studies at UM College of Arts and Sciences and lead author of this report.
