Zichron Yaakov is located upon Mount Carmel, with magnificent views across the Coastal Plain to the Mediterranean. It is a tranquil town, offering breathtaking views across Israel’s Mediterranean Coast and beyond. Zichron’s main street, known as Midrahov, is now a pedestrianized zone lined with cafes and boutique artistic stores. Being the original street of the settlement, many of the houses are of great historic value and have plaques outside that tell the story. Zichron Yaakov is also home to the Carmel, Tishbi and Binyamina wineries who also have visitor centers, which bring lots of tourists during ”normal” times. Besides beautiful homes, Zichron also has wonderful neighborhoods, good schools, shuls, and proximity to places of employment. Zichron has a vibrant community with a healthy diverse mix of people. Olim feel a sense of fitting in the community almost immediately upon arrival. There is also a Haredi community split into two areas, Hazon Ish and Ramat Tzvi, which both have English-speaking families.

Ir Yamim is a large area in the southwestern part of Netanya, built with the sea as its focal point. Proximity to the sea assures its success, according to real estate developers. Netanya is the favorite destination for many overseas residents who want a holiday home in Israel; it is located in the center of the country and is a seaside town. In relation to the total population, Netanya has the largest number of overseas residents. According to rough estimates, it has an overseas population of nearly 9 percent, most of whom have a house or an apartment that they use as a holiday home. Ir Yamim was designed with these people in mind. Its high-standard design and construction has much in common with the modern architectural motifs of Mediterranean seaside towns. Ir Yamim has nature on three sides: to the west, the Mediterranean Sea; to the south, the Poleg Nature Reserve; and to the east, the Irusim Nature Reserve. The buildings are designed so that the maximum number of apartments have sea views. As is typical of a quality development near the sea, the dwellings are not cheap – and they’re not meant to be. The closer an apartment in Ir Yamim is to the seashore, the more it costs.
