The borough of Brooklyn has a Jewish population of about 1,000,000, it was estimated today in a survey by the Brooklyn Church and Mission Federation, making it the largest Jewish community in the world. The survey found that probably not more than one-fourth of the Jews in Brooklyn were affiliated with a synagogue or a temple.
The survey put the religious divisions in Brooklyn as follows: 37 percent Jewish, 32 percent (or more) Roman Catholic, 29 percent (or less) Protestant, and two percent Eastern Orthodox.
