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.

Ok so switch that to belz

There are plenty Satmer families living in Linden.

Forget the details. My point still stands. One chassidus isn't interchangeable with another.

True, which is why Union City & Mt. Kisco don't have families moving there. But some communities are mixed, like Linden.

Right. I was pointing this out to op because there seems to be a ton of places to move to when reality isn't like that. Each chassidus has a choice of 1 to 2 places.

Literally no one is moving out to these places, and some of them won’t even accept new residents.

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.

Is this phrase a jab at Chassidish English? Lol because I can’t stand this phrase. (I’m Chassidish.)

My Grammar and spelling is not very good

How should I have phrased it better?

There are plenty Satmer families living in Linden. Linden is not an exclusively Bobov community. People from all different sects live there.

And you and I know how well that went down.

Ok. I love my fellow chassidim from all chassidusen but I am wondering who ever said there are tons of options for established chassidish families?

We all know that there aren't really that many options for a chassidish grown family to move to.

Once you have sons in yeshiva and girls in schools you basically stay put.

Unless there was a real chaotic situation going on I haven't heard of someone uprooting their family and moving more than a two hour drive away from where they have been.

The ones that move a plane ride away are usually very young families which sometimes end up coming back or sending their children back for schooling/yeshiva once they get to that stage.

I agree with Crust the people coming to my city for the kollelim or to be a rebbe are on the younger side with younger kids but the turnover seems to be low. Once people move I think they mostly stay. For girls parents send to the bais yaakov for high school and for boys I assume most go away to the east coast.

Baltimore has a chassidishe kollel

Chicago has a chassidishe community and Kollel
LA, Toronto as well

None of these places are in the tri state area. OP asked for tri state area.

Baltimore is the closest with about a 2.5 hour drive to Lakewood. I know some chassidim there and they are happy. There is a chasidishe kollel, Cheder, girls school and shul. There is all the infrastructure of a large city but it is definitely out of town so on a much smaller scale. Just letting you know in case you're willing to move out a bit.

Sorry I can't be too helpful about the tri state area aside from Lakewood, Brooklyn and Monsey which you obviously know about already.

Most of these places near the Tri-State area are not shayach for most.

Union City- only Klausenberg
Jersey City-only Satmar
Blooming Grove- only Satmar
Skver-only Skver
Monroe- only Satmar
Linden- mixed
Staten Island- mixed. (Not affordable)

Etc. You get the point.
Now most of these places would not even let me move there. If I am heimish chasidish I am doomed! That's why I moved to Lakewood. I'm the OP of the can't get into Lakewood school thread.

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.
