I'm a little surprised that NJ-5 and NJ-11 are more Jewish than NJ-9. I guess NJ-9 is just too heavily minority, so even if the white population is more Jewish (and I have no doubt it is, there are large Orthodox communities in Passaic and Teaneck, and substantial mainstream Jewish presence elsewhere), that's not enough.
Apparently my district (NY-9) has the most Jewish white non-Hispanic population in the country, roughly 65%, even beating out Nadler's NY-10. Which isn't surprising, since most of the area is either heavily-Black or heavily-Orthodox.
