Answer 1
Maybe because Israel is a Jewish Nation. It would make sense that most Jews would want to live safely and securely in a nation that supports their values, if they could.
Note:
Israel is the nation with more Jews among its population than any other nation, but it's not true that more than half the Jews in the world live there. According to figures as of mid-2009, Israel still comprises less than 50% of the world's Jewish population, with the rest spread among roughly 135 other nations.
Answer 2
First of all, most of the Jews don't live in Israel. The Jews living in Israel are still slightly less than 50% of the Jews in the world. But living in Israel has a great traditional value in Judaism, and Israel actively and openly, both religiously and secularly, welcomes Jewish immigrants, and it's expected that the Jews in Israel will be a majority of those in the world very soon.
The reason is very simple, without bending your ear or beating around the bush: Israel is an openly, proactively, ambitiously Jewish state, the place where Jews historically, culturally, spiritually, and secularly belong, and the only place in the world where Jews are welcome, period.
But still, for a short while, slightly less than half of the world's Jews live in Israel. The other slightly-more-than-half of the world's Jews are still spread out among 135 other countries.
Next subject:
This question has been coupled with the question "Why can only Jews live in Israel ?" ...
a question that cries out for a clear response.
It's true that Jews are a majority of Israel's population. But it is not true that any category is prevented from living in Israel. That means no categorical restrictions. Of all places on Earth, Israel understands the evil of restrictions against people based on what they are.
Israel has no official state religion, and no group, class, or category of persons is barred from Israeli residence and citizenship because of what they are. Residents, land owners, home owners, business owners, voters, full passport-holding citizens of Israel include Muslims, Christians, Palestinians, Druze, Seventh Day Adventists, Eastern religionists, non-religious, atheists, blacks, whites, yellows, ethnic Orientals, ethnic Arabs, all citizens have the vote, including their men and their women, and send their voting representatives to their local governments and to Israel's parliament.
The court that found a former president of Israel guilty of corruption and sentenced him to serve a prison term included a Jew, a woman, and a Muslim Arab, and there was no revolution or coup d'état preceding the verdict!
Is it necessary to point out how, in these respects, Israel is quite unlike other
countries in the region ?
Most people today do not live in Israel. Israel has a population of less than 7 million. The population of the planet is greater than 7 billion. This means that Israel represents less than 0.1% of the world population.

Most of the people in the world do not live in Jerusalem.
Among those people who do live in Jerusalem, many live there because they were born there or nearby. Many others live there for religious reasons; the city is a sacred place for three major religions. Some people live there simply because that is where they find employment or education.
Many people live in Israel because it has a booming economy and had massive Immigration in nearly every decade, but especially the 1950s and the 1990s.
The majority of people who live in Israel are Jewish, and Israel is the country of the Jews, as designated by God (Genesis ch.28).
