11. Economics and well-being among U.S. Jews
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Most Jewish adults report that they are satisfied with multiple aspects of their lives, including at least eight-in-ten who describe their family life, physical health and community as βgoodβ or βexcellent.β
As a whole, U.S. Jews are a relatively high-income group, with roughly half saying their annual household income is at least $100,000 β much higher than the percentage of all U.S. households at that level. In addition, about half of the Jewish adults surveyed describe themselves as living βcomfortably,β while three-in-ten say they are able to meet basic expenses with a little money left over; another 15% say they just meet basic expenses.
However, some Jews, particularly those with lower household incomes, report that they have difficulty paying for necessities. For example, 26% of all U.S. Jews β including 55% of those who earn less than $50,000 per year β say that, in the year prior to taking the survey, they had difficulty paying for medical care, their rent or mortgage, food, or other bills or debts.
