Are there any Muslim neighborhoods (other than maybe in Dearborn)? I was sort of under the impression that Muslims in America lived scattered through town in various neighborhoods, depending how rich or poor a particular family may be…

There are some communities with significant Muslim populations. Here, in the NYC metro area, there’s Paterson and Jersey City in NJ that are most notable (people tend to congregate and live with their own communities since it’s easier to find prayer groups, food, social interactions, etc.). In Brooklyn, there’s a stretch of Atlantic Avenue near Brooklyn Heights/Cobble Hill that has a significant Muslim population. There’s also a significant Muslim population in Queens and Manhattan.
