Main article: Demographics of Jersey
The Island plays host to large amount of non-Jersey born people; roughly 50% of the population are not originally from Jersey.
30% of the population is concentrated in Saint Helier, site of the only town. Of the roughly 88,000 people in Jersey, around two fifths are of Jersey/Norman descent and two fifths of British descent. The largest minority groups in the island are British (N. Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales), Portuguese (especially Madeiran), Irish and Polish. The French community is also always present. The people of Jersey are often called Islanders, or in individual terms Jerseyman or Jerseywoman. Most Jersey-born people consider themselves British and value the special relationship between the British Crown and the Island.
The Church of England is the established church, but Methodism is traditionally strong in the countryside and there is a large Roman Catholic minority.
Jersey, like most places in the western world, has an ageing population. Reasons for this change particular to Jersey are the emigration of young people seeking opportunities the Island cannot provide.
There is no free movement of people between the United Kingdom or other countries of the European Union and Jersey.
