American Jews, also known as Jewish Americans,[9] are American citizens of the Jewish faith or Jewish ethnicity.[10] The Jewish community in the United States is composed predominantly of Ashkenazi Jews and their U.S.-born descendants. Minority Jewish ethnic divisions are also represented, including Sephardic Jews, Mizrahi Jews, and a number of converts. The American Jewish community manifests a wide range of Jewish cultural traditions, as well as encompassing the full spectrum of Jewish religious observance.

Depending on religious definitions and varying population data, the United States is home to the largest or second largest (after Israel) Jewish community in the world. The population of American religious adherents of Judaism was estimated to be approximately 5,128,000 or 1.7%[11] of the total population in 2007 (301,621,000);[12] including those who identify themselves culturally as Jewish (but not necessarily religiously), this population was estimated at 6,489,000 (2.2%) as of 2008.[13] As a contrast, Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics estimated the Israeli Jewish population was 5,664,000 in 2009 (75.4% of the total population).[14]

There is a town in Maryland called Bethesda, my parents almost moved there, but it was too far from where my dad worked and the metro didn't go to where he worked. Apparently it was full of rich jewish people, and according to my friend who lives there, a lot of the kids have nose jobs by very young ages.
