A new study by the Shoresh Institution reveals that ultra-Orthodox families relocating from central Israel to the periphery are developing distinct household profiles, diverging from traditional patterns seen in cities like Jerusalem and Bnei Brak. The research highlights smaller family sizes, increased car ownership, and greater exposure to screens among peripheral households, alongside higher transportation and communication expenses but lower housing costs. Despite these shifts, incomes in the periphery remain lower than in the center, though reduced housing expenses partially offset this gap. The study also notes higher educational attainment among women and suggests that lifestyle adaptations in the periphery are reshaping family structures and fertility decisions, with potential long-term demographic consequences.
