New Pew Report Details
‘Jewish Americans in 2020’
Toby Tabachnick and Andy Gotlieb
“J ewish Americans in 2020,” Pew’s first deep
dive into Jewish life in the U.S. since 2013,
paints a picture of a population that is diverse
politically and religiously, but for whom, overall, “be-
ing Jewish” remains important.

Pew’s newest survey of Jewish Americans was
conducted from November 2019 through June 2020,
with most of the work completed prior to the
pandemic. Its methodology differed from the 2013
survey in that it was conducted online and by mail
rather than by phone.

While the 2020 study shows few significant
changes in statistics from 2013, it does “clarify”
some trends, said Alan Cooperman, director of
religion research at Pew Research Center.

“You can get a kind of ‘aha!’ moment out of the
survey where it shows you something that, yes, it
makes a lot of sense, but you hadn’t been able to
crystallize it until that moment when you saw it in
the data,” he said.
