ShulMap: map every shul — and find where you can live within walking distance
We designed and built an interactive mapping platform that charts shuls, kosher markets, mikvahs, and schools across North America — with walking-radius overlays that show observant families exactly where they can live.

Where they started.
For observant Jewish families, where you live is bound by where you can walk on Shabbat — within range of a shul, and ideally near kosher shopping, a mikvah, and schools. That knowledge lived in people's heads and scattered local tips, making it hard for anyone moving to a new city to know which neighborhoods actually work.
What we did.
- 01Designed and built an interactive map of shuls across 54 metros, filterable by denomination — Orthodox, Chabad, and Sephardic — with kosher markets, mikvahs, day schools, and kosher dining as toggleable layers.
- 02Built the signature 'where can I live' feature: walking-radius overlays around each shul, plus mapped apartment communities, so families can see viable neighborhoods at a glance.
- 03Researched and wrote 112 neighborhood guides across 24 states and Canada, so each community page answers the real questions newcomers ask — and ranks for them.
- 04Added a lightweight advertising model so local realtors and businesses can reach families choosing where to live.
What changed.
ShulMap became a go-to map for observant families planning a move — 1,850+ shuls across 54 metros, with the kosher markets, mikvahs, schools, and walkable neighborhoods around each one. A question that used to take dozens of phone calls now takes one map.
