Basque

U.S. Basques by City

SOURCE: The following originally appeared online at http://www.epodunk.com/ancestry/Basque.html and is

re-produced here in case it is re/moved.

The above map shows U.S. cities with the highest percentages of people of Basque ancestry. Move your mouse over points

on the map to see city names and percentages, and to link to in-depth community information.

People of Basque heritage trace their roots to a region of southwestern France and north-central Spain. Many early immigrants

to the U.S., drawn by the California gold rush, came via South America.

ePodunk mapped the top Basque communities by percentage of population. The map and the following list show communities

in which 1,000 or more people listed an ancestry group, and in which at least 1 percent of those people said they were Basque.

The links at left lead to information on other races and ethnicities.
