Report finds shift in Hispanic Americans’ religious identity

The share of Hispanic Americans who identify as religiously unaffiliated rose from 18% in 2013 to 23% in 2025, according to Axios, which cited a review of data from the Public Religion Research Institute.

A later PRRI summary added detail to that trend, showing the unaffiliated share climbed to 25% in 2024 before slipping back to 23% in 2025. The increase from 2013 to 2025 was not a steady, uninterrupted rise each year.

Separately, Pew Research Center found that the share of Latino adults identifying as Catholic fell from 67% in 2010 to 43% in 2022. Pew described the share of Latino adults identifying as Protestant as relatively stable over that period, standing at 21% in 2022.
