Kiryas Joel, New York

Kiryas Joel ((イディッシュ語:קרית יואל), ''Kiryas Yoyel'') is a village within the town of Monroe in Orange County, New York, United States. The great majority of its residents are Hasidic Jews who belong to the worldwide Satmar Hasidic dynasty. Most of the village's residents speak Yiddish as their first language.
Kiryas Joel is part of the PoughkeepsieNewburghMiddletown, NY Metropolitan Statistical Area as well as the larger New YorkNewarkBridgeport, NY-NJ-CT-PA Combined Statistical Area.
According to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, Kiryas Joel has by far the youngest median age population of any municipality in the United States,〔(Here's The Youngest Town In Every State ) Accessed September 11, 2014.〕 and the youngest, at 13.2 years old, of any population center of over 5,000 residents in the United States.〔(City Data ) Accessed December 14, 2006.〕 Residents of Kiryas Joel, like those of other Haredi Jewish communities, typically have large families.
According to 2008 census figures, the village has the highest poverty rate in the nation. More than two-thirds of residents live below the federal poverty line and 40% receive food stamps.〔 It is also the place in the United States with the highest percentage of people who reported Hungarian extraction, as 18.9% of the population reported Hungarian extraction in 2000.〔
==History==

Kiryas Joel is named for the late Rabbi Joel Teitelbaum, the ''rebbe'' of Satmar and driving spirit behind the project. Teitelbaum himself helped select the location a few years before his death in 1979. Joel Teitelbaum, originally from Hungary, was the ''rebbe'' who rebuilt the Satmar Hasidic dynasty in the years following World War II. The Satmar hasidim who established Kiryas Joel came from Satu Mare, Romania.〔Mintz, Jerome R., ''Hasidic People. A Place in the New World''. Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press 1992, pp. 28. ISBN 0-674-38115-7〕
In 1946, Teitelbaum originally settled with his followers in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, a borough of New York City. By the 1970s, however, he decided to move the growing community to a location that was not far from the commercial center of New York but was also more secluded from what he saw as the harmful influences and immorality of the outside world. Teitelbaum's choice was Monroe. The land for Kiryas Joel was purchased in 1977, and fourteen Satmar families settled there. By 2006, there were over 3,000. When he died in 1979, Teitelbaum was the first person to be buried in the town's cemetery. His funeral reportedly brought over 100,000 mourners to Kiryas Joel.
It is widely believed that no candidates run for the village's board or the school board unless first approved by the grand rebbe, Rabbi Aharon Teitelbaum. In 2001, Kiryas Joel held a competitive election in which all candidates supported by the grand rebbe were re-elected by a 55–45% margin.〔( "A Hasidic Village Gets a Lesson In Bare-Knuckled Politicking" ) by David W. Chen, The New York Times, June 9, 2001. Accessed December 14, 2006.〕
