Which Jerusalem neighbourhood fits you depends on three things: who you want as neighbours, how you will get around, and what you can pay. Here is the honest map.

Jerusalem is not for everyone, and that is the point. Here is what residents love, what wears them down, and how it compares with Tel Aviv.

Quiet streets, stone houses, the Train Track Park and one of the city's biggest English-speaking family communities. What living in Baka is really like.

Emek Refaim's cafés, Templer stone houses, the First Station and the Train Track Park. The best-known English-speaking address in Jerusalem.

Old Katamon's gardens and shuls, and the more affordable Katamonim next door. What living in Katamon is like, and which half suits you.

Leafy, central and prestigious. Rehavia's 1930s streets and Talbiyeh's grand houses, and what living there is like.

Terraced streets with views over the Jerusalem Forest, and the city's largest English-speaking chareidi community. What living in Har Nof is like.

Young families, kollel couples, Anglo shops and the light rail nearby. What living in Ramat Eshkol is like.

Three neighbourhoods under one name: quiet Arnona, the shops and warehouses of Talpiot, and East Talpiot on the ridge. What living in each is like.

Narrow lanes, hidden courtyards, a shul on every corner and the shuk next door. What it is really like to live in Nachlaot.

Next to the Hebrew University's Mount Scopus campus and on the light rail: a mixed neighbourhood of students, academics and families.

One of Jerusalem's largest neighbourhoods: bigger apartments for the money, strong religious communities and a long bus ride to the centre.
