The Apartment Search Starts in Earnest

Why do we want out of our apartment?

  • 63 meters is not much space
  • our lease ends in August
  • we live in the most neglected building on the block

So, we’ve started looking for an apartment. We’ve seen a few here and there, but on Friday we took a trip to Elazar (across from Efrat) and saw five apartments! If we were just picking an apartment from the five wouldn’t be so difficult, but the decision to leave Jerusalem is very hard. I keep hearing mixed things about the safety of the road between Jerusalem and Elazar (since we both work in Jerusalem, this would be a daily trek), but I don’t know how to evaluate it. Do I compare it to traffic accidents in Jerusalem? It isn’t easy. The prices are much better, and that is a big concern. On the other hand, we have developed a nice community here in Jerusalem.

I’ll give more reports as they become available….
