"Our family moved to Rochester 3 years ago from NYC. The quality of life in Rochester can’t be compared to that of city life. Our community is growing, but warm and welcoming. Life seems simpler, and more manageable without the pressures you would normally find in larger communities. Homes are affordable, our community is safe and our education system is up to the standards that you would come to expect in a Frum community. Best move I ever made, was moving to Rochester NY."

"Rochester has been such a warm and welcoming community for our family! This past year we were looking to relocate from a small out-of-town community to a larger community with strong Torah values and a solid educational infrastructure. BH, we found the right place. We were welcomed with open arms by all of the shuls and mosdos, and amazing neighbors! We have several frum families on our block, and our children have tons of friends to play with. Brighton feels like a friendly and safe neighborhood, bli ayin ha’ra, and our children all play together on our block. It has been a great social experience for them. We also found the school we have been searching for in Derech HaTorah. The leadership and drive of Mrs. Goldstein is awe inspiring, and she has worked very hard to get our children the extra services we had not been able to provide them with thus far. In addition I have been very impressed with all of their dedicated teachers and staff. There are many davening and learning options for me, and I feel like this is a community in which I can truly grow and raise my family. Thank you Torah Rochester for helping me connect to such and awesome community."

"I really did not know much about Rochester, not to speak about the Jewish community there. My online search has brought me to this site, Torah Life in Rochester, where I found the necessary information about schools for kids, shuls, Yeshiva, real estate, job search, and more. I was definitely surprised to find out a strong Jewish community in Rochester. My wife and I decided to visit, and we were accepted with warm welcoming. We really loved the community. Multiple functioning shuls, kosher products in stores, an impressive school for kids, extremely affordable housing, easy to navigate and clean neighborhood (Brighton), all make it a desirable place for a Jewish family. If you are still uncertain of your decision, I strongly encourage you to read through this website and schedule a visit in Rochester."
