How wide spread is judaism today?

The largest Jewish populations are in the US and Israel. Proportionally, Israel is about 2/3 Jewish, while in the US, the population is about 1/50 Jewish. There are also significant Jewish communities in Canada, Mexico, Argentina, England, France and Russia and smaller Jewish communities in most of Europe, Australia, South Africa and Iran. The Jewish community of Morocco still exists, and there are a few Jews still living in Egypt, Yemen and India. All of those used to have large Jewish communities until the 20th century. Most of the Jewish population of the world is urban, so Jews cluster in the larger urban areas and there are few Jews in rural regions.
