Hebron, Palestine

The city's population stands at 215,452, but with 700 Jewish settlers controlling a sizable chunk of the city, bureaucracy and security measures are a constant headache for the 35,000 Palestinians living under Israeli military occupation. The climate is temperate, with yearly temperatures ranging from 15-16°C, and the city is an agricultural hub, producing 60% of the West Bank's stone and marble resources. However, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is deeply entrenched here, making Hebron a challenging place to call home unless you're an ideologically-driven Jewish settler.
