With Federation assis- tance, Ukeles and Cohen designed the population study. Market Opinion Research of Detroit carried out the telephone polling. Each survey averaged 30-40 minutes. Stuart E. Hertzberg, who chaired the study, and Aron- son now are working with Federation staff, community and agency leaders to devise implementation strategies for the study. "We won't do what has been done in some other cities," said Hertzberg, ad- ding staff will not allow the study to sit on a shelf. When Federation's board au- thorized the study last year, they also approved $75,000 to create a computer data base to utilize the findings. Over a five-month period, beginning in April, Ukeles and Cohen are expected to make additional reports covering the Detroit Jewish community's mobility, af- filiation, service needs and participation in the Allied Jewish Campaign. The final report is expected in Oc- tober. For the purposes of the survey, the researchers defined a Jew as anyone who identifies himself as a Jew, or who has no religious pre- ference but was raised as a Jew. The survey also found: • 79 percent or 75,500 Jews lived in the 12 core suburbs and 20,400 or 21 percent live in other areas of Oakland, Wayne and Macomb counties. • Mirroring national statistics, Detroit's Jewish households averaged 2.25 persons in 1989, down from 3.20 in 1963. But the corn- munity had 42,600 Jewish households in 1989, corn- pared to 26,400 in 1963. Jewish households were defined as any that had a person who identified as a Jew. • 14 percent of the corn- munity was 9 years old or younger, 12 percent was 10- 19, 7 percent was 20-29, 14 percent was 30-39, 16 per- cent 40-49, 12 percent 50-59, 14 percent 60-69, and 11 per- cent age 70 or older. Ukeles suggested that the drop in the 20-29 category reflected the numbers of students who go away to college and return later. • Nearly 80 percent of all Jewish men in Detroit and 70 percent of Jewish women are college graduates, with 39 percent of the men and 21 percent of the women holding master's or profes- sional degrees. • 35 percent of those surveyed identified them- selves as Conservative Jews and 35 percent said they were Reform Jews. 10 per- cent said they were Or- thodox. 8 percent said they were "just Jewish." Others said they were secularist or humanist (5 percent), Conservative- Reform (3 percent), tradi- tional (1 percent), Reconstructionist (1 per- Continued on Page 20
