Why it works

You're not buying a house. You're joining a community.

A listing shows you granite countertops. It doesn't show you the three things that decide whether your family will be happy there. We do.

Your Shabbos, on foot

The walk to shul is measured along real streets — a highway or a lake between you and the shul actually counts. See the true ten-minute Shabbos radius drawn around any address, and every shul inside it.

Your street, by name

Every home around an address, labeled with its owner from public records — plus an honest read on how much of the block is already frum. Know the street before you meet the street.

Your next home, in reach

Homes on the market appear right on the map — and every address shows what else is for sale within a twenty-minute walk. Find the house inside the community, not the other way around.

Step 1

Search any address

A house you saw listed, a street a friend lives on, or just a community you're curious about.

Step 2

Read the block

The nearest shul on foot, the full Shabbos walk, the neighbors by name, and what's for sale around it — in one card.

Step 3

Move with confidence

Compare communities until one feels like yours. Then you're not moving somewhere new — you're coming home.

The Friday-night test

Some things a listing can never tell you. A block can.

Whether the walk to shul is four minutes or forty. Whether your kids will find friends two doors down. Whether the street will feel like yours on a Friday night.

That's what we map — from public records, measured honestly, and free for every family. The distances are real walking routes. The owners are the public record. And where something is an estimate, we say so.

The communities

Twenty-seven communities. One of them is yours.

Every community we cover, with its own guide: what the map knows about it, the Shabbos walk, the neighbors, and the homes for sale.

Neighborhoods

The names people actually use.

Inside those towns are the developments and neighborhoods families name when they talk about where they live — and those names are rarely on any official map. Each one here has what we know about it, its outline, and what is for sale inside it.

Questions families ask

Finding a frum community, answered.

How do I find a frum community that fits my family?

Start from an address, not a town name. Search any address on the map and you will see the shul you would actually walk to on Shabbos, how much of the surrounding block is already frum, and the homes for sale nearby — the three things that decide whether a place will feel like yours. Then browse our community guides to compare towns.

Which frum communities does Is It Frum cover?

Eight towns in New Jersey — Lakewood, Jackson, Toms River, Howell, Manchester, Deal, Passaic and Clifton — and all of Rockland County, New York, including Monsey, Spring Valley, New Square, Kaser, Airmont, Wesley Hills, Pomona, New City, Haverstraw and Stony Point. That is 293,710 mapped properties with 263,365 owner records, and we are growing.

How is the walk to shul measured?

Along real streets, on foot — not a straight line on a map. A highway or a lake between you and a shul counts, so the nearest shul by distance is not always the nearest shul by walk. The 10-minute Shabbos radius is a true walking isochrone traced along the street network.

How do you know how frum a neighborhood is?

Every home is labeled with its owner of record from public property records, and we give an honest estimate of how much of the block is frum based on common Jewish names. The walking distances are measured; the frum share is only an estimate — it may not be accurate and should not be assumed accurate.

Can I see homes for sale in these communities?

Yes. If an address is on the market, its live listing appears right on the report — price, beds, photos and a link to the listing. Every address also shows the other homes for sale within a 20-minute walk, so you can see what is available in the part of the community you actually want.

Is it free, and where does the information come from?

Completely free, no sign-up. Everything shown is drawn from public records — property lines, owners of record and live listings. Nothing here is private information, and anyone can ask to have their name removed from the map.
