Americans of Arab ancestry are a heterogeneous amalgam of national and religious subgroups. Their link is a common Middle-Eastern Arab cultural and linguistic heritage. Arab Americans live primarily in cities or adjacent suburbs. Many recent arrivals tend to gravitate to Arab ethnic neighborhoods, such as the Detroit suburb of Dearborn, Michigan. Many of the early immigrants left homes in Greater Syria. A second post-World War II wave of immigration included refugees displaced by the 1948 Palestine War. Following the June 1967 Arab-Israeli War, the 1970s and 80s witnessed a massive influx of Arab immigration to the U.S.
