So I was reading on a different thread that there is no real chassidish community outside of the triangle- Brooklyn,Monsey,Lakewood.

Many people disagreed and said there are much more chassidish community's in the Tri State region.

I am not chassidish and don't really know to much about different chassidish community's.

I think it will be a public service if people will post all the different community's instead of saying that there are tons.

Please post yours or someone's that you know about, please included all the infrastructure that, that community has.

Staten Island has grown a lot in the last few years. Linden NJ as well. Tampa has a small community. Okeechobee is supposed to be opening later this year.

Florida, Baltimore, Chicago, Milwaukee, Arizona.
Other areas in the tri-state besides for Brooklyn, Monsey, Lakewood:
Catskills
Linden NJ
Jersey City NJ
Staten Island
I wish there was a chassidish community in Texas, I'd move in a wink.

Chicago has two kolleim and a yiddish speaking cheder.

Baltimore doesn't just have a chassidish kollel, we have a chassidish cheder, daycare, and girl's school. All yiddish speaking. The chassidish kehilla has their own mikvah if for some reason the men don't want to use the community mikvahs or the "other" chassidish mikvah. We have chassidishe schita at our grocery stores.

LA has a chasidish community. Some of them really chasidish, from Williamsburg type.
There’s a chasidish/heimish school and cheder, chasidish kollel and shuls.

Right, forgot about LA. There are some very very chassidish families living there.

These aren't growing communities, as far as I know. As in, families aren't moving there from Brooklyn, etc.

I think Toronto’s chassidish community is dwindling. Toronto is also an extremely expensive city. And you can’t just move there unless you immigrate or you or your spouse is Canadian.

Can people also post if there’s a chill heimish community somewhere? People who wear chassidish levush but don’t have a rebbe and don’t speak Yiddish.

There’s a small community in Monsey and some in Lakewood but I want a more affordable community to live in.

Ah I heard recently union, NJ bobov 45 branched out to (I though it was the same as union city, but just got confirmed that it’s not the same place). It’s close to linden and Elizabeth NJ.

Blooming grove is near Monroe, NY

Chassidish is broad. No bobov or viznitz or belz belong in blooming Grove. No one from satmar would move to bobov linden and so on.

Linden is mixed. It's not Bobov, though there are a lot of Bobov families. There are definitely Satmar families there; there is a Satmar cheder.

There's actually a Viznitz yeshiva in Blooming grove and a growing Viznitz community there.
There are plenty Satmer families living in Linden. Linden is not an exclusively Bobov community. People from all different sects live there.
