We are in a position right now that we could move almost anywhere. We live OOT and are 1 family of very few chassidish people and the other families ARE moving out of town. So I am curious that if we decided to leave our community where would we go. Any suggestions on OOT Breslov or at least neutral chassidish communitues?
One of the big reasons we are considering leaving is because the antisemitism in the area has increased greatly over the last year. My DH got surrounded by a group of teens because he was wearing a streimel, now he won't wear it out anymore. This saddens me.
Any suggestions?

Are you looking in the US, Israel, Europe?

If you're in Israel, look into Ashdod, near Rabbi Shalom Arush. (Yes, I know it's under heavy fire at the moment. IYH it won't last forever.)

I'd love to be able to live near him!

well obviously you can live anywhere there are yidden which is all over the word! If you are Breslov then I'm sure you know where there are Breslov communities. Are you by any chance lev tahor? If you are I wouldn't worry about the anti semitism, rather getting along with frum jews wherever you go.

What? I know I can live with any Yidden. We currently live with "any Yidden" and I thought since we could possibly move it would be nice to be with other Breslovers.
What makes you think I am Lev Tahor? Aren't they the cultish ones in Canada??? Did I say something cultish by asking where others are? Do you think I'm looking to recruit???
Anyway we are Breslov and I don't know where every Breslov community is located. Do YOU know where every XYZ community is located?? Sheesh. So I'm asking.
We are currently in the US and would probably stay here for now. I have a couple of older kids so I don't think moving to Israel would work out for them. But I would love to be there. So any US communities??

If you're wondering who reported your post I did. It was nasty and inflammatory and made zero sense if you know even the first thing about Breslov.

He actually lives in yerushalayim if you think it's easier to live here Very Happy I know bec dh davens at his minyan at Chut shel chessed, and he's mentioned seeing him there on shabbos for whatever reason. But anyway you said you're planning to live up north.

Op here.
Thanks for reporting that post heyaa. I didn't think to so that. I was just so stunned by it actually. I wish the person would come back to "defend" it but I'm sure she won't.
Also frantic frummy may be thinking of Rabbi Brody, I'm pretty sure he lives in or near Ashdod.

Rabbi Brody lives in Ashdod, where he is the head of that branch of Chut
shel Chessed. Rav Arush lives
In Yerushalayim where he is the head
If Chur Shel Chessed there. Ashdod is the branch for Americans/non Israelis I think.

At first I found this stupid. Then offensive. Then it made me Rolling Laughter.
So thanks for the laugh. But SERIOUSLY! theres way too many things wrong in this one short post!

Thanks for the correction!

DH has his heart set on moving to Nahariya, but with the train system you can really go anywhere you want.

That is amazing, that people are moving to South Africa. Believe me, I understand why being part of that beautiful kehilla is appealing, but S. Africa itself gives me pause.

No way am I moving to France right now. I love it there but it's scarier there than in Israel at the moment. Also unless we went to Israel I wouldn't leave the US.
