The Pew Research Center Survey of U.S. Jews 2013, is a comprehensive national survey of the Jewish population. The survey explores attitudes, beliefs, practices and experiences of Jews living in the United States. There are two datasets, a respondent dataset (where there is one row per respondent) and a household dataset (where there is one row per person in the sampled households). The respondent dataset includes all of the information collected as part of the survey. The household dataset is a reshaped version of the respondent dataset that includes a limited number of variables describing the demographic characteristics and Jewish status of all of the people in the surveyed households.

Good to know

Margin of Error

Data in the dataset are based on the estimates and are subject to sampling variability and thus a margin of error. Neilsberg Research recommends using caution when presening these estimates in your research.

Inspiration

Neilsberg Research Team curates, analyze and publishes demographics and economic data from a variety of public and proprietary sources, each of which often includes multiple surveys and programs. The large majority of Neilsberg Research aggregated datasets and insights is made available for free download at https://www.neilsberg.com/research/.

This dataset includes all personal names listed in the Wikipedia category “American people by ethnic or national origin” and all subcategories fitting the pattern “American People of [ ] descent”, in total more than 25,000 individuals. Each individual is represented by a row, with columns indicating binary membership (0/1) in each ethnic/national category.

Ethnicity inference is an essential tool for identifying disparities in public health and social sciences. Existing datasets linking personal names to ethnic or national origin often neglect to recognize multi-ethnic or multi-national identities. Furthermore, existing datasets use coarse classification schemes (e.g. classifying both Indian and Japanese people as “Asian”) that may not be suitable for many research questions. This dataset remedies these problems by including both very fine-grain ethnic/national categories (e.g. Afghan-Jewish) and more broad ones (e.g. European). Users can chose the categories that are relevant to their research. Since many Americans on Wikipedia are associated with multiple overlapping or distinct ethnicities/nationalities, these multi-ethnic associations are also reflected in the data.

Data were obtained from the Wikipedia API and reviewed manually to remove stage names, pen names, mononyms, first initials (when full names are available on Wikipedia), nicknames, honorific titles, and pages that correspond to a group or event rather than an individual.

This dataset was designed for use in training classification algorithms, but may also be independently interesting inasmuch as it is a representative sample of Americans who are famous enough to have their own Wikipedia page, along with detailed information on their ethnic/national origins.

DISCLAIMER: Due to the incomplete nature of Wikipedia, data may not properly reflect all ethnic national associations for any given individual. For example, there is no guarantee that a given Cuban Jewish person will be listed in both the “American People of Cuban descent” and the “American People of Jewish descent” categories.

This study, designed and carried out by the "http://www.asarb.org/" Target="_blank">Association of Statisticians of American Religious Bodies (ASARB), compiled data on 372 religious bodies by county in the United States. Of these, the ASARB was able to gather data on congregations and adherents for 217 religious bodies and on congregations only for 155. Participating bodies included 354 Christian denominations, associations, or communions (including Latter-day Saints, Messianic Jews, and Unitarian/Universalist groups); counts of Jain, Shinto, Sikh, Tao, Zoroastrian, American Ethical Union, and National Spiritualist Association congregations, and counts of congregations and adherents from Baha'i, three Buddhist groupings, two Hindu groupings, four Jewish groupings, and Muslims. The 372 groups reported a total of 356,642 congregations with 161,224,088 adherents, comprising 48.6 percent of the total U.S. population of 331,449,281. Membership totals were estimated for some religious groups.

In January 2024, the ARDA added 21 religious tradition (RELTRAD) variables to this dataset. These variables start at variable #12 (TOTCNG_2020). Categories were assigned based on pages 88-94 in the original "https://www.usreligioncensus.org/index.php/node/1638" Target="_blank">2020 U.S. Religion Census Report.
