American values can vary, depending on a person's family structure, religious background, or even where they live. Even so, some values are regarded as being important to the majority of the American population. These include the rights of individuals to make decisions for themselves, the virtues of progress (economic, social, or technological), social mobility and egalitarianism, and practicality and efficiency in work.
