When it comes to IQ, in the 1940's - 1960's Jews had a 107 IQ & a 111 IQ between 1970's to present.

That sounds better than the 100 IQ average.

Well, so did a lot of other groups.

American Ethnic Groups

In the 1970's Polish Americans had a 109 IQ, Chinese Americans a 108 IQ, German Americans a 105 IQ, and Irish Americans a 105 IQ.

In the 1960's the Irish American IQ was 108 & the German American IQ was 106, (A bit higher in than the 1970's)







Jews are in general in higher income metro areas than a lot of other groups, like NYC, LA, Boston, Chicago, etc.

Sure, Jews have about 97-100 K household incomes in recent years, that sounds about double the national average.
