Rabba was traditionally populated largely by the Majali and Zureikat families, the first of which has considerable political influence in the country. However, since 1948 when Israel declared its independence, many Palestinians, who left their homes in Palestine settled in Rabba as well, now accounting for about a third of the town's population. Rabba is known for its friendly, welcoming people, and its world renowned Jameed and Samneh.
