There are few official statistics on religion; historically, around 90% of the population has been Catholic. The majority of the population is made up of immigrants from Spain, Portugal, and France, with full citizens accounting for less than 36% of the total. The immigrants are mostly Catholic. It is believed that half of the Catholic population attends church regularly. Islam is the second most common religion, accounting for approximately 0.8% of the population, and other major religions include Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and others.
