Jewish populations by country. Some numbers are given by the American Jewish Year Book 2012[4] and published in the Jewish Virtual Library, a non-governmental website covering topics about US-Israel relations and the Jewish people. Others numbers are given by more accurate governmental and non-governmental local census. The UK numbers are from the 2011 census adjusted by the Office for National Statistics in 2015 and recorded in the 2015 JPR report Strictly Orthodox Rising.
