Source-derived summary

Ganei Tikva (Hebrew: גַּנֵּי תִּקְוָה, lit. '"gardens of hope"') is a town with "city council" status in Israel bordering Kiryat Ono to the west, Petah Tikva to the north, Gat Rimon to the east and Savyon to the south.

History

Ganei Tikva was formed in 1949, located on land near the Palestinian village of Al-'Abbasiyya, which became depopulated in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.

Shikun Yovel, built in 1949, was the first neighborhood. Ganei Tikva achieved local council status in 1953.

Yismach Moshe, a religious neighborhood, was built in 1962. (During the Shabat, Yismach Moshe is closed to traffic). Givat Savyon was built in 1972, and is considered a high-end apartment building neighborhood. In an attempt to duplicate Givat Savyon's success, Givat Savyon HaHadasha neighborhood was formed on the eastern side, bordering Gat Rimon. The latest addition to Ganei Tikva is the residential neighborhood Ganim.

Ganei Tikva is known for its high standard of living and quality education.

The public source identifies “Ganei Tikva” as human settlement in Israel. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Ganei, Tikva and human.

Editorial reviewA concise reference frame for defining the subject, testing terminology and identifying the institution closest to the evidence. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1949, 1948, 1953, 1962—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1953-01-01. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Ganei, Tikva and human providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Ganei Tikva”, the useful work is to connect “human settlement in Israel” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2920123. VIAF identifies the subject as 316601459.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
