Where in the world has the least amount of anti-semitism?

[Consideringwhere]

DH and I are British Jews living in London. Like all of you I’m sure, we’ve seen and felt the huge rise in anti-semitism in the UK since October 7th and are sick of it. I worry about it continuing to rise and it being an unsafe place for my future children.

We want to escape and emigrate to a place that is safer for Jews. But where are those places?

Israel is the obvious answer, but the threat of terrorism is very high. The US? Canada? Anywhere else? I know most of Europe is as bad, if not worse, than the UK for anti-semitism.

DH and I both have professional jobs which hopefully mean we could secure visas to most places, although appreciate the application process can be lengthy.

Now there's an age old question.

Sorry, I realise that was rather flippant but seriously, I just don't know any more. Can you still get Portuguese citizenship if you have the Sephardi link?

We've previously debated the Jewish Autonomous Oblast (too cold, slightly geographically precarious), Florida (too hot, alligators) or an island (might sink) on here. I've often wondered what it would be like to live in New York, which I believe has a Jewish population of over 2 million- sometimes I'd really like to be somewhere where there's more strength in numbers and visibility. I'm not sure Canada is such a great place to be Jewish right now.

On the other hand, New Yorkers can be more likely to experience everyday antisemitism (I have family there). At the same time, public schools are off for Jewish holidays!

Things are mostly all right here in the DC suburbs. I was nervous with eldest DC off at a liberal arts college but her campus wasn't too bad. Nothing like the mess at Columbia which was appallingly handled all around.

My friends & family in Toronto are all right aside from the eye popping cost of living, but Montreal is complicated.

nowhere, sorry.

I feel like western democracies generally better but not sure which specifically.

Bigger Jewish communities - safety in numbers. If you are the target of antisemitism at least you have company. But more visible so more likely to experience antisemitism. (its not hard to find a Jewish target in London or Paris, but someone will have to work harder in Madrid)

East Asia. Anti semitism does not exist in the vocabulary there.

Is that because it does not exist, or because they have not recognised that it exists...?

Mostly because there's just not many Jews and never have been so it's not on their radar. But that comes with other issues.

It means that you have to explain at length what the word actually means and why it is an issue. A historical lesson of thousand years.

True they don't have many Jews. Just a place to answer OP's question, where about half of the world's population don't really care if you're Jewish or not.
