It borders two villages in the Zvulun Regional Council: the Jewish Kfar Hasidim and Arab Ibtin.

The yeshiva purchased a 10-dunam (0.010 km2; 0.0039 sq mi) lot on the outskirts of the village and five buildings containing a beth midrash, dining hall, dormitories and offices, moving into its new home at the end of April 1955.
