A large portion of Aanqoun's population hold university degrees and work as doctors, nurses, lawyers, teachers, engineers.
Lebanon itself is known for its religious diversity, with significant populations of Maronite Catholics, Greek Orthodox, and other Christian denominations alongside Muslim communities.
Like many areas in Lebanon, Aanqoun experienced demographic shifts over time due to various factors including migration, economic opportunities, and the effects of Lebanese civil conflicts.
Lebanon's civil war (1975-1990), for example, caused significant demographic changes throughout the country, with many people relocating for safety or economic reasons.
The war and its aftermath influenced the religious and ethnic composition of numerous regions, leading to more mixed communities or changes in the dominant groups within certain areas.
There might still be small minority of Christians residing in Aanqoun, reflecting Lebanon's characteristic religious diversity, but detailed, current statistics are not readily available.
The broader area's demographics have been influenced by historical shifts, migrations, and the impacts of the Lebanese civil war, as well as ongoing economic and political changes.
Ibrahim Farhat, Ahmad Zaiour, and Sana'a Mehaidli are three examples out of more than 25 Anqouni residents, representing the three major political parties present in the town.
