If you look even vaguely Arab, you're going to have a very different experience here and should be prepared for that. On the other hand, if you look very stereotypically Jewish, you'll have another completely different experience here, and should be prepared for that. I'd also say that if you're Jewish but not Orthodox or conservative you may find living here to be more challenging than you expect. - Oct 2019
