    Why would anyone settle in Miami? Are you anticipating spring break?

    Only consider Baltimore if you believe in not judging a person based on their hat (or no hat), clothes, where they Daven or where they send their kids to school but by whether or not they’re a Mensch.

    If you choose Passaic, send regards to squeak; if you choose Chicago, send regards to Syag.

    Kingston PA has a very rapidly growing Jewish Community that is not really documented on the web. Apparently they now have schools going from Kindergarten to High School/Mesivta for both boys and girls, a new Kosher store and other infrastructure.

    Bridgeport, CT??????
    No way!!! The city has zero to offer. High taxes, a convicted Felon/jailbird as Mayor.
    A dead Jewish Community
    No Bakery, Butcher, etc.
    Overpriced housing
    High property taxes

    Disclosure: I live nearby and we are property owners in Bridgeport. I would not send any Jew to live there. Makes Waterbury look good. Those who have followed my posts know my low opinion of Waterbury

    Manchester England is really growing, there are lots of different types of yidden and depending where you live is quite insulated. There are a bunch of schools and shuls to choose from, but not a lot of restaurants 🙁
