About Bronx

The Bronx is the northernmost of the five boroughs of New York City in the U.S. state of New York, located south of Westchester County. The Bronx had a population of 1,438,159 in 2014. The Bronx is divided by the Bronx River into a hillier section in the west, closer to Manhattan, and a flatter eastern section, closer to Long Island. East and west street addresses are divided by Jerome Avenue—the continuation of Manhattan's Fifth Avenue. The West Bronx was annexed to New York City in 1874, and the areas east of the Bronx River in 1895. 7,000 acres (18 km1) of the Bronx—about one-fifth of the Bronx's area, and one-quarter of its land area—is given over to parkland. The climate produces cold winters and hot humid summers

What Is *JOFY?

JOFY, or "Jewish Observant Friendly" Establishments are lodging establishments offering special services for Jewish Observant guests such as Shabbat meals, accommodation on lower floors and regular keys for the rooms. It can also be a NON KOSHER establishment located in walking distance from the local Shul, community or kosher restaurants area.

Please note - *JOFY does NOT mean that KOSHER food is served on the premises!
