Massachusetts has an Irish ethnic population of 23.5% according to the 2000 census. So around a quarter of Bay Staters claim their heritage to Ireland.

South Boston and Charleston remain strong Irish enclaves. Milton, MA is 38% Irish.

The Italians are the second largest ethnic group with about 8% in Boston and 13.5% in Massachusetts. They are prominent in the North End of Boston.
