[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are Jewish, and there is one other family in our neighborhood that is Jewish.  The rest is mostly Christian, with quite a few being evangelical Christian, and quite unfriendly toward us.  I have never felt comfortable here.  In general, the first time in my life (I'm from NYC) that I directly encountered anti-Semitism was here in NoVa, and from my perspective it is much more Christian and evangelical than anything I'd experienced before.  I Fairfax right now, and I have lived in Arlington and Mclean.  Those areas are not as bad as where I live now, although I'd have a  hard time thinking of anything to really recommend them over Maryland.  The Jewish community is barely a community here.  It is very spread out, and not very cohesive.  But of course, those who really make an effort do certainly find a Jewish friend group and a synagogue or Chabad House they like.  But if Jewish is the main thing you care about, I just don't see this being a great place for it.[/quote]

OP Jews are not welcome in VA it has never been awesome the community is too far spread out.

Parts of MD this is true as well.

With Youngkin still governor VA is a huge mistake [/quote]
