More Than One Million Americans Report Ukrainian Ancestry

When the U.S. Census Bureau began collecting information on ancestry in 1980, there were an estimated 730,056 people who claimed Ukrainian origins. ?

That number did not substantially change until after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. By 2020, the Ukrainian population in the United States had topped one million.

The Census Bureau?s?American Community Survey (ACS) [ [link removed] ]?data (1-year [ [link removed] ]?and?5-year [ [link removed] ]?estimates), along with decennial census data from 1980, 1990, and 2000, give us current and historical perspectives on the U.S. population with Ukrainian ancestry and on the foreign-born population from Ukraine.

Together, these data paint a demographic and socioeconomic portrait of these populations, from where they live and how old they are to what jobs they hold and how much they make.
