Writing music based on religious believers this month. I’m wondering if the religious populations in NYC are the same as in 2001.
from wikipedia:
As reported in 2001 the religious affiliations of the people of New York were:
- Christian – 68%
- Roman Catholic – 38%
- Baptist – 7%
- Methodist – 6%
- Presbyterian – 2%
- Episcopal – 2%
- Lutheran – 2%
- Pentecostal – 2%
- Other Christian (including unspecified denomination) – 13%
- Jewish – 9%
- Muslim/Islamic – 3.5%
- Buddhist – 1%
- Other Religions – 4%
- Non-Religious – 13%
6% of the people surveyed refused to answer.
