About This Dataset

Jewish Population by Country (2026)

Israel and the United States hold roughly four-fifths of the world's Jewish population between them, with Israel having overtaken the United States in the mid-2000s. France's community, the largest in Europe, has contracted over the past decade through emigration. Totals vary between sources depending on whether they count religious identification, ancestry, or eligibility under Israel's Law of Return.
