That is a lot for recent arrivals since 90s. hopefully we not absorbed and are able to maintain culture and connection back home.

odds not in our favor america is melting pot after all. Many Swedes moved to Minnesota between 1850-1930 hardly any speak language or have any connection back home even though country safe today

Swedes are white and blend in with the majority Somalis are African muslims I guarantee in 30-40 years there will still be a very visible Somali community in places like Minnesota and Ohio

I doubt they’ll have much of a connection to back home they’ll definitely keep the deen though although they’ll probably be more liberalized

Damn, thats so many. I assumed MN would consist the vast majority but with the numbers you provided mn somalis constitute only 41% of the US somali diaspora. Would love to know how much maryooleys live in each state.
