According to the Pew Research Center:
Muslim Millennials were born from 1981 to 1999 and generally came of age after 9/11. The Muslim population in the United States is younger than the U.S. population at large. In fact, while Millennials make up 32% of all U.S. adults, they account for roughly half of American Muslim adults (52%). Most have transitioned to adulthood, and attended or graduated college. Some have embarked on careers or begun raising families.
Here are some other factoids about Millennials Muslims, yes from Pew:
1. While U.S. Muslims overall are largely an immigrant population (58%), Muslim Millennials are somewhat less likely to have been born abroad than are older Muslim adults (52% versus 64%). Within the general public, 15% of all Millennials are immigrants.
2. Muslim Millennials are as likely as older Muslim adults to say religion is “very important” in their lives and that they attend religious services at least weekly. This differs from the generational dynamic in some larger U.S. religious groups.
3. Muslim Millennials are more likely than older American Muslims to say homosexuality should be accepted by society (60% versus 44%).
4. Muslim Millennials, like older Muslims, lean heavily Democratic (69%) – more so than Christian Millennials (47%) and the U.S. Millennial population as a whole (56%).
5. Muslim Millennials are less likely than older Muslim adults to say the American people are “generally friendly” toward Muslims in the U.S. (45% versus 65%).
