[Buddha-l] Buddhist Population in the UK increases

[Mahinda Deegalle]

Dear All,
The 2011 Census in the UK is quite favourable this time with Buddhists increasing the number of Buddhists in the UK to 248,000 (0.4%) of the total population in the UK.

Subject: [Buddha-l] FW: most and least Buddhist Cities in America?
 

For bean counters, this compilation might be of interest. It also does Hindu
and other US religions.
Not a Hindu temple or Buddhist viharas made the slide show.  Also the Los
Angeles part doesn't include Orange County (far as I can tell, which
features a large Vietnamese population) many of whom might still be
Buddhist.

When we get to these religions: Christian, Mormon, Jewish, Muslim, and
Catholic, it goes by states not cities and the slides present the respective
worship houses of these respective religions.
