Ra'anana (Hebrew: רַעֲנָנָּה, lit. "Fresh") is an affluent city in the southern Sharon Plain of the Central District of Israel. It was founded in 1922 as an American-Jewish settlement, c.1 km south of the village of Tabsur, where an important World War I battle had taken place four years previously.[2][3]
Bordered by Kfar Saba and Hod HaSharon on the east and Herzliya on the southwest, it had a population of 80,260 in 2022.[1] While the majority of its residents are native-born Israeli Jews, a large part of the population consists of Jewish immigrants from the Americas, Europe and South Africa.
Ra'anana's industrial park is home to global and local start-up companies. It was designated a "Green City" by the World Health Organization in 2005.[4]
