The Kiryas Joel-Poughkeepsie-Newburgh MSA is a component of the New YorkNewarkBridgeport, NY-NJ-CT-PA Combined Statistical Area, which had an estimated population of 23,582,649 as of the 2020 census.

In February 2013, the MSA was deleted, and the constituent counties became part of the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ-PA Metropolitan Statistical Areas. [2] During this time, the counties were split into two metropolitan divisions: Orange County was a part of the New York-Jersey City-White Plains, NY-NJ Metropolitan Division, while Dutchess County was in the Dutchess County-Putnam County, NY Metropolitan Division. [3] The MSA was restored as a separate entity in September 2018. [4] In 2023, the MSA was renamed to reflect population changes among its largest municipalities.
