A focused population profile of Cajun, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Cajun is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Cajun with other modern populations in the database.
The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Cajun.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Cajun is French Bourgogne-Franche-Comte Cote-d'Or. Other nearby references include German Hesse, German Bavaria Lower Bavaria, Acadian, and French. This gives the Cajun profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Cajun average. It should be read as a model of deep ancestry components, while the closest-match table is the better guide to which modern populations are most similar in G25 space.
The heatmap gives the Cajun profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Cajun average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is French Bourgogne-Franche-Comte Cote-d'Or. Other nearby references include German Hesse, German Bavaria Lower Bavaria, Acadian, and French.
In the current modern G25 reference set, French Bourgogne-Franche-Comte Cote-d'Or is the closest listed match to the Cajun average after removing Cajun itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Cajun G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
