Hundreds of Jewish families, including Orthodox Jews, have left New York and moved to a new community in Florida. Their departure comes amid rising antisemitism, which has become a major concern for families considering where to live. They were also fed up with what they saw as political dysfunction in New York. The families’ move has not ended the strain: influencers have spread what the families describe as vicious, Jew-hating rhetoric outside their homes. The rhetoric has made life “hell” for them, according to the account of their experience. The reported departures involve hundreds of families, rather than a single household or a small number of individuals. Their move to Florida offers a new community, while the reasons behind leaving include both antisemitism and dissatisfaction with conditions in New York.
