What's it like to live in a Jewish majority?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Yachdav : One Thread

What's it like to be in a community where everyone else is Jewish? I mean, I personally live in a community where there are a few Jews, a few Muslims, a few Hindus. We have a bit of everything, but it's mostly Christian. That means that when Christmas comes around, it's a big deal. Whereas Purim and Kwanza go unnoticed.

Have any of you come to Israel from a country where you were in a minority as Jews? What was the adjustment like? What was most different?
