'''Arab-Americans''' are [[Americans]] of [[Arab]] ancestry. Over 4 million Americans trace their ancestry to Arab countries, and the vast majority are citizens of the United States.  Over 75% are [[Christians]], many having escaped religious persecution in their homelands.  Today, one-third of Arab-Americans live in [[California]], [[New York]], and [[Michigan]]. They are better-educated than the average American. The average Arab-American entrepreneur may have a higher personal and household income than a non-Arab-American counterpart in most regions of the United States. <ref>[http://www.aafusa.org/arabamericans_welleducated.htm Arab American demographics]</ref>
