Demographics of Jerusalem by quarter

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article provides the demographics of Jerusalem by quarter, sub-quarter (neighborhood), and approximate totals for West and East Jerusalem according to the UN-recognized border (1967 border). Some sub-quarters straddle the Green Line and in those cases the sub-quarter is assigned to the sector (East or West) into which most of the area falls.
