Map of
Jewish Populations
Designed as a resource for students, this interactive map of Jewish populations illustrates how Jews have lived throughout the world, emigrated from and immigrated to many countries over the last 125+ years, and have been targeted for expulsion or death in multiple countries in the 20th and 21st centuries. Explore this map by toggling between the years listed at the bottom and by clicking on specific countries to view demographic data and, in some cases, additional historic context.

This map is intended to be used as a complementary tool to understand the diversity of Jewish life and the effect antisemitism has had on it, regardless of where Jews have called home. Teachers can click the icon in the upper-right corner to find source material and resources to support classroom instruction, as well as explore our Gringlas Unit on Antisemitism after the Holocaust.
