This is the first demographic study on Egyptian immigrants in the United States and is exploratory in nature. Although many studies have been done by Egyptian and foreign demographers on the Egyptian family in Egypt (Little 1967; Shanawany 1969; Crowley 1969; El-Badri 1965; Rizk 1963; ... etc.) none dealt with Egyptian families in the United States. The main purpose of this study is to discover whether there is a significant change in the Egyptian family size in the United States in comparison with that in Egypt and to compare the family size of the present adult generation with that of their own parents and grandparents irrespective of location.
