BEIT EL, West Bank — The rooms are much smaller, with kitchens running along a wall of the salon rather than in a separate space. But freshly potted flowers and trees awaited the new residents on each doorstep. There are no hilltop views, no grassy yards, though neighbors share courtyard patios of the same red brick that formed a path behind the old place.

Gas, sewage, water, air-conditioning and electricity — including timers for Shabbat — were all in place on Tuesday as families ousted from the disputed neighborhood known as Ulpana made their way to their new homes down the hill here. The relocation was the most peaceful evacuation of a Jewish settlement from the occupied territories in memory.

“You can see they’re making an effort,” Michal Kitay, 23, said of the government as she told movers where to put bookcases and beds. “But it hasn’t got memories. Our home is in Ulpana. We brought both of our babies back from the hospital there.”

After months of legal wrangling, political infighting, threats of violence and marathon negotiations, the Ulpana families moved quietly if not willingly on Tuesday, resentful of losing homes they love but grateful that the government had agreed to build 10 times their number in this sprawling religious settlement near the Palestinian city of El Bireh.
