As one of the most diverse nations globally, the United States has always been a vibrant melting pot of cultures, languages, and religions. Islam, the world's second-largest religion, finds a significant yet multifaceted representation among this richness. American Muslims comprise a mosaic, showcasing various racial lines, and generational variations, mirroring America's broader demographic complexity.
Coming on top of the list is New York with 724,475 Muslims making up a significant portion of the state's population. The second most populated state in the US by Muslims is California, boasting a count of 504,056 adherents. Like New York, it also has a history of diversity and is known for its welcoming stance towards immigrants which could explain the high Muslim populace. Third in line is Illinois, accommodating 473,792 Muslims. This statistic highlights Chicago’s significant immigrant population. Chicago is home to one of the oldest and most established Muslim-American communities in the United States. Following these three is New Jersey, hosting 321,652 members of the Muslim community, then comes Texas, the second overall most populous state in the US, with a Muslim population of 313,209. Michigan is next with a Muslim population count of 241,828. Michigan, being home to the city of Dearborn, known for its dense Arab-American and Muslim population, provides an explanatory context. Further down the list, we have Maryland and Virginia, respectively hosting 188,914, and 169,371 Muslims each. Pennsylvania and Massachusetts complete the top ten with a Muslim populace of 149,561 and 131,749 respectively. States with the Largest Muslim Population:
