Amshinov Chassidim live in Bayit Vegan (I think). What area are you referring to in specific? I'm suprised you saw so many kids. Classic Bayit Vegan is an older neighborhood.

Tons of kids in bayit vegan. The beit yakov there has about 8 classes of 30 girls in each grade.
There are also older people though. A nice range of ages.
Many olim - especially from France, but also Anglo.
Several parks. And the kids play together in entrances to the buildings.

I really had no idea young families were still coming to live in Bayit Vegan. Nice to hear. I live in a litvish neighborhood, and there are a few lone chassidish families who send to the litvish schools, and their kids are integrated, since kids don't care about this stuff. But if you don't want to send to the local schools, your kids will have a hard time. I would avoid that if possible.

We are Chabad. I won't change my kids schools, in fact one of the things that appeal to me about Bayit Vegan is that the busing would be very convenient for them. But I don't want to walk into a situation that we feel extra lonely because we're surrounded by kids and families but not any friends.
There is a Chabad presence in Bayit Vegan (or or two of my kids have classmates live in Bayit Vegan, actually) but it is small. |
I think you're kids might find it hard to make friends, not because you are chabad, but because they will not be in school together with the kids on the block. It's always a little harder to make friends like that. All the other kids will know each other from school. But if they're friendly types, they can make friends too - shul, avot ubanim, etc.
And for me personally, my 'friends' are my kids' friends parents. They're not my friends for calling and having a heart-to-heart in the evening, or for going out for coffee, but for nattering in the park, asking quick advice, borrowing something, etc.
So it depends how sociable you are, how easily you make friends, etc.
I find that Israeli's don't have a lot of time for deep friendships, at this stage of life. It's more a neighbourly friendship, like I said, while your kids are playing.
Is there a chabad shul in bayit vegan? I don't know. I know there is one in Givat Mordechai, that serves beit hakerem as well, but that's a bit of a walk.
