Kiryas Joel–Poughkeepsie–Newburgh metropolitan area

The Kiryas Joel–Poughkeepsie–Newburgh, NY Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the United States Office of Management and Budget, is an area consisting of two counties in New York's Hudson Valley, with the municipalities of Kiryas Joel, Poughkeepsie, and Newburgh as its principal cities. As of the 2020 census, the MSA had a population of 679,221. The area was centered on the urban area of Poughkeepsie-Newburgh. Prior to July 2023, it was known as the Poughkeepsie–Newburgh–Middletown, NY Metropolitan Statistical Area; whereupon it was renamed to its current name, to reflect population changes among its largest municipalities.

The Kiryas Joel–Poughkeepsie–Newburgh MSA is a component of the New York–Newark–Bridgeport, 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. 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. The MSA was restored as a separate entity in September 2018.
