Jews

Approximately two thirds of British Jews live in or near London, with concentrations in various sections of the northwest and northeast metropolitan area. About 15% of the population in the London Borough of Barnet is Jewish. There are also substantial Jewish communities in Greater Manchester (especially Bury), Leeds, and near Glasgow (East Renfrewshire).

This report on the 2011 UK Census is the first to incorporate data from the censuses in Scotland and Northern Ireland into the analysis. It explores geographical change in the UK Jewish community, and demonstrates how the UK Jewish population is becoming increasingly concentrated in a small number of core geographical areas.
