Yahudi Amerika, adalah warganegara Amerika Syarikat yang merupakan keturunan Yahudi. Sebahagian besar tinjauan pendapat kependudukan memperkirakan jumlah penduduk mereka adalah antara 5.2 juta ^[2] sehingga 6.4 juta orang ^[3]. Dengan demikian penduduk masyarakat Yahudi di Amerika Syarikat dapat dianggap yang terbesar atau nombor dua terbesar di dunia setelah Israel.
