In recent years, many Chasidic Jews from Williamsburg have decamped to Jersey City in search of more affordable housing. Some 100 families largely associated with the Satmar community now live there.
Many young Jews of all backgrounds have also flocked there, attending services run by Rabbi Moshe & Shaindel Schapiro and Rabbi Shmuel & Esta Levitin who run Chabad Young Professionals in the area.
Authorities now claiming four dead in the bodega, to victims and the two attackers.
