From where?
Are you happy there ?
What was the reason?
Is your house bigger or smaller from where you came ?

we moved from a small OOT community. We had daas torah advising us to move, and everything fell into place BH for Lakewood (jobs, schools, etc).
Housing is bigger here, made for large families.

Edited to add - we are very happy Baruch Hashem.

Do you have kids? If yes did you apply to schools before moving?

yes and yes! reached out in February to over 25 schools to ask for applications and to start the process. It was rough, and in the summer I finally threw up my hands and said "Hashem, they're your children too. If it's good for us to move to Lakewood, please get them into school. Otherwise, we'll keep looking for jobs in other communities." At that point we had jobs lined up. I got the call the next day that we were accepted, and we moved that month.
