Info

Race and Ethnicity The vast majority of East Bay Jews identify as white (76 percent) or Jewish (6 percent). Fewer respondents identify as African American, Hispanic, or Asian American/Pacific Islander (6 percent). Younger Jewish residents are less likely to identify as white and more likely to identify as nonwhite than older Jews. Unsurprisingly, the East Bay community overall is much more diverse: according to the 2010 Census numbers, 13 percent identify as African American, 32 percent identify as Asian or Pacific Islander, and 31 percent identify as Hispanic or Latino. 16 Figure 16: Race Race Total East Bay (2010 US Census Data) 17 Total East Bay Jews (GQR Survey Data) White 51 76 Black 11 4 Hispanic 24 1 Asian 20 1 Other 2 7 Jewish - 6 Don’t Know/Refused - 5 Figure 17: Race by Age 16 2009 US Census Data. ―2009 Census Employment Breakdowns for Alameda County, Contra Costa County, Napa County and Solano County‖ Accessed June 1, 2011. http://factfinder2.census.gov/main.html. 17 2009 US Census Data. ―2009 Census Race Breakdowns for Alameda County, Contra Costa County, Napa County and Solano County‖ Accessed June 1, 2011. http://factfinder2.census.gov/main.html. 18
