| Fouta Tooro | New York | 7,600 | Bed-Stuy (Brooklyn) | Flatbush, East New York | Islam | Senegal | Pulaar | 78 | In 2021, a Pulaar Speaking Association leader in Brooklyn said 6,000 households paid dues to their association. At least 80% of these are Fouta Tooro as there are some members who are Fulani from Guinea or other areas. Among Fouta Tooro, there are families in NYC but a majority are individual males whose wives and families remain in Africa. The families that are together in NYC are very large. As a result, if 80% of 6,000 member households are Fouta Tooro (4,800), and an average household size is conservatively two people, double that amount is 9,600. Community leaders report 2,000 Fouta Tooro left New York City during COVID-19 which leaves 7,600 left in the city. |

The Kurdish community was diligent in informing Kurds to write in their ethnicity. Kurdish is a language option for languages other than English spoken at home.

An accurate enumeration of Somalis in Nashville is difficult to generate due to poor participation in the decennial census. However, a sizable community is evident on the city’s landscape through the clustering of the ethnic business and religious establishments and noticeable concentrations of Somalis living along Murfreesboro Pike.” |

It is widely believed, however, that census counts grossly underestimate the size of the Somali population. A federal report released under the Access to Information Act estimated 150,000 ethnic Somalis live in Canada, much higher than the 62,550 2016 Statistic Canada Ethnic Origin Somali estimate. Using the ethnic origin estimates, 40.84% of Somalis in Canada live in the Greater Toronto Area. If using the likelier estimate of 150,000 Somalis in Canada, 40.84% equals an estimated 61,260 Somalis living in the Greater Toronto Area. To compare with other cities, the Somali ancestry number in Minneopolis/St. Paul is over twice that of the Greater Toronto Area. |
