The Liechtensteiner people migrated from Liechtenstein, a small country of 62 square miles with a total population of a little over 37,000 which is bordered by Switzerland to the west and south and Austria to the east and north. Liechtenstein is situated in the Upper Rhine valley of the European Alps and the entire western border is Rhine River.

They speak Swiss German, which is not mutually intelligible with German. They are highly literate and very well educated with the country's education system being ranked the 10th in the world.

The majority of Liechtensteiner people may claim Roman Catholicism as their religious adherence with a very small percentage claiming Protestant Christianity.

However, even those who claim Roman Catholicism are non-religious. In other words, they do not practice Roman Catholicism or another religion. Rather, they live a secular lifestyle.
