The New York Times has reported that after the decades of decline, the Jewish population of New York City is growing again, increasing to nearly 1.1 million, fueled by the explosive growth of the Hasidic and other Orthodox communities. Reform and Conservative movements each lost about 40,000 members between 2002 and 2011. The New York area’s Jewish population is the largest in the world outside of Israel. It composes about one-third of the American Jewish population, which has been estimated at around six million.
