Any Jewish people in Fishers,IN?
Hello,
We are a family of four and we are thinking about relocating to Fishers,IN.
We would like to move to a place where there are some synagogues and be able to meet other Jewish people in the community for the Holidays, etc.
Any information will be highly appreciated.

Fishers doesn't have a synagogue. Carmel recently welcomed a congregation, I believe they are a conservative congregation:
Congregation Shaarey Tefilla in Indianapolis, Indiana
Here's one on the northside of Indy, they are progressive:
Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation
The JCC is a great place to start:
JCC Indy
I met a few non practicing Jews in Fishers, but I think most live closer to their synagogues.

Domergurl is spot on. Many of Indy's Jewish citizens reside on the northwest side in the Westlane/86th-Ditch areas as they are close to the synagogues. There's also the Hasten Hebrew Academy on Hoover Road, which offers Orthodox Jewish education through the 8th Grade.

I have Jewish family in Fishers. But from what it sounds like, they are among the few.

The Jewish families I met in Fishers were non-practicing.
