    Ramat Bet Shemesh is a good community for olim. Its helpful for children adjusting to Israel and going to school in Ivrit to be in a place where there are other kids their age that speak english. Yes it is a little expensive, but family is important. If you want to be with Israeli chreidim you can go to the Lev Eliyahu shul, its near the center in RBS A.

    Take a look at the Ramban in THIS WEEKS PARSHA on the posuk “vhorashtem es Yoshvei Haaretz Veyshavtem Bah”, that there’s a mitzvah dorayasah to live in Eretz Yisroel bzman hazeh. The fact that the government isn’t frum and there is a lot of Chilul shabbos is sad, but doesn’t take away the mitzvah. The Ramban doesn’t say there is a mitzvah only if the government is frum.
    There may be reasons that a family is “patur” from Aliyah- if one realy can’t make a living or has older kids that can’t adjust– ask your Ruv.
