Mammele: Not all the photos are from Kaser- the street they specifically profiled was Herrick, which is either Spring Valley or unincorporated Ramapo, not sure which.
My mom grew up (frum) in one of the areas that turned chassidish (which is now unincorporated Ramapo). There were serious problems- not in the people themselves, but with a general culture clash. After a while, my grandparents sold their house for a good price (where it was replaced with another eighteen apartments), but it’s not unreasonable for people to feel like they’re being hounded out by the new people, especially given the intimidating amount of physical space the buildings take up.
Also, the infrastructure here in Monsey cannot support the volume. I live far from the main problem areas (though the developments are creeping closer and closer to my neighborhood) but it’s becoming impossible to drive through Monsey. My mom remembers 59 as a country road, not a parking lot.
