>JERSEY CITY — To the gentrifying stew of bankers, artists and college graduates who are transforming this once blue-collar city across the Hudson River from Manhattan, add an unexpected flavor.
>In a heavily African-American neighborhood, 62 families from a number of Hasidic sects based in Brooklyn and rarely seen here have bought a scattering of faded but roomy wood-frame rowhouses whose prices are less than half what homes of similar size would cost in New York — roughly $300,000 compared with $800,000.
>These families are pioneers in a demographic and religious shift that is reshaping communities throughout the region. Skyrocketing real estate prices in Brooklyn and Queens are forcing out young ultra-Orthodox families, which are establishing outposts in unexpected places, like Toms River and Jackson Township in New Jersey, the Willowbrook neighborhood on Staten Island and in Bloomingburg, N.Y., in the foothills of the Catskills.
>The influx, however, has provoked tensions with long-established residents, as the ultra-Orthodox seek to establish a larger footprint for their surging population. Residents complain that investors or real estate agents representing the ultra-Orthodox community have been ringing doorbells persistently, offering to buy properties at “Brooklyn prices.” Jersey City, Toms River and Jackson have all passed no-knock ordinances barring such inquiries under the threat of fines or have banned solicitations altogether.
>The mayor of Jersey City, Steven Fulop, said his town took pride in its diversity but had been concerned about “very aggressive solicitation.”
>“They literally go door to door and can be very pushy trying to purchase someone’s house,” Mr. Fulop, a grandson of Holocaust survivors and a graduate of yeshivas, said in an interview. “It’s not the best way to endear yourself to the community, and there’s been a lot of pushback.”
i wouldn't mind orthodox jews buying my house for top dollar

Nah. They'll just start jumping them and then the media will report on "anti-Semitic hate" and blame "White supremacists."

I remember reading how hasidic jews would go into a small town, take over everything - school board, local politics, everything. Then they'd pass ordinances for themselves all while running welfare scams. Its a huge thing apparently.
Also notice how they say 99% of the population is "white"
Nicholas Murphy
They're literally parasitic creatures. Holy fuck

I'm pretty sure there were several new york towns they took over. The article I read was from a few years back, but it sounded like there were several towns. google just brings up this one town.
A lot of the rules ultra orthodox are required to follow by their religion are fucking insane, they don't work very well outside of dense urban areas. So the only way they can practice their beliefs in a suburb or a rural area is to totally take over the town's politics and municipal planning and practically turn it into an old European ghetto. Even Israel leaves the ultra Orthodox to their own neighborhoods.

Jews are Crackas according to many blacks.

>only White people can be racist >all White people are racist >ergo, anti-racist equals...
This is the closest I can find. They've scrubbed anything about if from the net unless it has a "these poor jews" bent to it. Wow.
Lucas Peterson
Why can't they just do what the Amish do and buy farmland?
Connor Taylor
Theres literally more Jews that live in NY then Israel, of course theres several towns
Jonathan Lee
jews cant work labour jobs, thats why the wikipedia article mentioned earlier about the jew nest in NY mentioned how they wanted their purchased land to be close to the city; so they could exploit it for revenue
why is it uneasy don't ultra orthodox kikes usually keep to themselves?
Josiah Wood
This. They are children of Cain, and as such are cursed, the land will not obey them, nor will it produce any crop.

See and read Every upstate New Yorker knows this. A large extended family could easily move to a small upstate NY town, usurp the city council by election and tax the shit outta every goyim until they leave.
