In a 1970 census, 1,593,993 persons answered Yiddish in response to the mother tongue query. The technique for estimating the total Jewish population is based on the assumption that in each subarea the proportion of the population below 25-years-old is similar to that for the aggregate population. Four metropolitan areas were chosen: Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Saint Louis, and Cleveland. There are 107,000 Jews in the Washington area in 1970. While in Baltimore, about 40 percent of a Jewish population of approximately 93,000 resided in the central city. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Jewish Social Studies is the property of Indiana University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
