About 4,000 Families Register for 19 New Northern Samaria Settlements
Samaria Regional Council and Amana report registration demand far exceeding initial available spots
According to the report, the Samaria Regional Council and the Amana movement stated that roughly 4,000 families have registered in a candidate pool for 19 planned settlements in northern Samaria. This marks an initial registration stage, ahead of actual plot allocation. The reported registration volume significantly exceeds the number of housing units expected to open in the first phase. The reporting bodies present this as evidence of growing public interest in settling the area. No details have yet been published regarding exact locations, marketing timelines, or final eligibility criteria for each settlement.
What this means for land buyers
For families interested in land and self-build in the area, this signals high competition for plots in the first phase of these new settlements. It is advisable to follow official announcements on registration terms, lottery dates, and eligibility criteria, and to review planning and permitting requirements for each specific settlement in advance.
