    Los Angeles is definitely the first.

    The following is my guess at the others:

    Toronto

    Chicago

    Baltimore

    Montreal

    Cant’s say 100% sure, but my impression is that Montreal should actually be much higher on that list. Probably right after LA. The rest is probably pretty accurate.

    Don’t mean to hijack your thread, just want to throw out another question:

    By Oct 31, 2011, the world population will reach 7 billion people.

    How many jews are there in the world today?

    Don’t know for sure about the US cities, but Toronto’s (Greater Metropolitan Area, including heavily Jewish Thornhill, just to the North of the city limits) Jewish population is about 185,000 to 200,000, and Montreal’s is about 90,000 to 95,000. This is from fairly reliable sources including the most recent federation studies from both cities. Los Angeles is said to have well over 500,000, and both Boston and Chicago have around 200,000 or a bit more.

    Sorry, EYY, that wasn’t fair of me. In my defense, however, I responded to the title of the thread, which is “Jewish Population” which includes everyone.
