As mentioned above, one of the most alarming findings of the 2009 report was that only 40 percent of American Muslim youth age 18 to 29 could be classified as thriving. This was significantly lower than the youth of other religious groups and went against the general trend where young people are more likely to be thriving than older members of the same community. This report finds those phenomenon to have disappeared. 65 percent of American Muslim youth age 18 to 29 are now considered thriving, which is on par with other religious groups, and obviously the enormous positive change from 40 to 65 is much more than any other group experienced during this time period. To be honest, I find this remarkable change to be a little puzzling, especially in light of widely perceived increases in the visibility of Islamophobia in the media, and this deserves further examination. The positive numbers are somewhat consistent with other results found in the report which find that in addition to having a generally positive view of President Obama’s performance, American Muslims have an optimistic outlook on the economy in general and on their own communities, although they still may report significant economic or community problems. I also think, as I mentioned when discussing the results of the 2009 report, that we have to consider the diversity of the community and that the Muslim community in America contains large segments which are economically well off and large segments which are economically struggling. Still, there does seem to be a general optimism among the community which is reflected in these survey results.
