This year, PRRI studied shifts in Americans’ religious affiliation and religious practice with nationally representative surveys and other analysis:
“Americans have grown less likely to attend church services; in 2023, around one-quarter of Americans (24%) say they attend religious services at least once a week, a 7 percentage point decline from 31% in 2013.”
“Because there is no measure of religious affiliation on any U.S. Census Bureau product, the PRRI Census of American Religion is the most comprehensive resource available on religious diversity in America.”
