Chicago, Illinois is home to the second largest population of Lithuanians in the world. Many famous people in the United States are aware of their Lithuanian ancestry, including Robert Zemeckis, Pink, Anthony Kiedis and Brandon Flowers. Current Senate Majority Whip Richard Durbin is half-Lithuanian.

The Lithuanian-American community in Grand County, Colorado is unusual in that it is the only sizeable immigrant population in an otherwise fairly homogeneous population in a rural, mountainous community.
