In the six New England states and Pennsylvania, the percentage of persons of Irish heritage is greater than 16% and in Boston it is 24.1%. By contrast in Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Utah and California the percentage is less than 8%. In the US 34.1 million people, 10.9% of the population, claim Irish ancestry, more than seven times the population of the Emerald Isle. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
