Harish is located on green hills close to the Iron interchange on Highway 6, at a height of 110 meters above sea level, and a driving distance of 10 minutes from Pardes Hanna-Karkur.
The city’s origin is in Kibbutz Harish, established in the ’80s and abandoned in the early ’90s .After the kibbutz’ evacuation, the Ministry of Construction and Housing laid down preliminary infrastructure for the development of the city of Harish. Additionally, as part of the plan to unify local authorities, a unified local council was established for the communities of Katzir and Harish, despite the relatively large distance between them.
In recent years, especially after the paving of Highway 6, the region saw a significant increase in the demand for housing among young couples and families, who found a home in the surrounding kibbutzim and the various communities in the Pardes Hanna-Karkur area. Harish’s proximity to Highway 6, its location in the heart of the green Iron hills that enjoy continuous air flow and low humidity levels relative to the coastal plain, created renewed interest in the town’s development.
On September 01, 2016, with the establishment of four primary schools and 20 kindergartens and day care centers, the first year of studies opened in Harish. On September 2018, more than 2,600 children attended the city’s 4 schools and 42 kindergartens. Secondary schools, as well as other schools and kindergartens are expected to open later, following the pace of population growth.
During 2017, the main commercial avenue opened (Derech Eretz Ave.) which today includes a supermarket, a variety of shops, sick fund branches, fast food, cafés and more. During 2021, the number of citizens living in Harish reached 25,000.
As a new city, Harish has become an exceptional solution in Israel for young couples and families looking for quality housing at affordable prices, in close proximity and with accessibility to the center of the country.
