live in New Jersey, New York, California, Washington, D.C. and Texas. In California, most North Africans live in around from Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego. In Texas, the communities are mainly in Dallas, Austin and Houston. There are also concentrated North African settlements in Michigan (especially in Detroit), Nebraska (Omaha), Florida (in cities such as Miami, Orlando or Jacksonville), Illinois (Chicago) and Virginia (in cities such as Alexandria). There are Isleño communities in Texas, Louisiana and in Florida. While in Texas and Louisiana, most of the Isleños are descended from Canarian settlers; in Florida are recent immigrants and their descendants. The ancestries of North Africans in the United States are the following: Egyptian Americans: 256,070 (2016 American Community Survey) Moroccan Americans: 29,461 (2016 American Community Survey) Canarian Americans: 45,000 - 75,000 (2000 statistics) Libyan Americans: 9,000 (2010 Census) Algerian Americans: 8,752 (2000 Census) Tunisian Americans: 4,735 (2000 Census) Genetics Most of these populations belong to the E1b1b paternal haplogroup, with Berber speakers having among the highest frequencies of this lineage. Additionally, genomic analysis has found that Berber and other Maghreb communities are defined by a shared ancestral component. This Maghrebi element peaks among Tunisian Berbers. It is related to the Coptic component, having diverged from these and other West Eurasian-affiliated components prior to the Holocene people with origins from Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya. Culture and language Most of North Africans in the United States are Muslims, Jews and Catholics (Isleños). Although there is also a small minority of people with the Berber culture that according to the census of 2000, they were 1327 people in the U.S. As well as also Jewish minorities originating mainly from Morocco. Most of the Muslim are Sunnis. Linguistically, the majority of North Africans in United States speak English, Arabic, Coptic, French (Algerians, Moroccans, and Tunisians), Berber, Italian (Libyans), and Spanish (some Isleños). While the Arabic language is shared by most North African people – although in their particular dialects such as Moroccan Arabic or Tunisian Arabic, French and Italian are also often used among North Africans from the states that were colonies of France and Italy in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Berber also is spoken mainly by many Moroccans (in fact, in Morocco, the people who speak Berber is, according various estimates, between 45% and 60% of the population) and Algerians (in Algeria represent between the 25% and
