the communities that succeeded after WW2 are places that had a good leader, a Rebbi or a Rosh Yeshiva, all others went מטה מטה. AFAIK.

In your opinion.
It's similar to ppl from Lakewood moving to areas such as royal grove in TR.

SI is NYC and ppl there utilized all its services at one time or another. So it's not like a totally new independent community but more like an extension of of BP...
From a chusids point of view Staten Island is just as new as a community as Tampa or whatever it may be. Obviously SI has the benefit of proximity just as Tampa I’m sure has its own benefits. What I meant to bring out is that SI -for the chasidim- are a complete new community and was a complete success without any Rebbe or the likes.
From what I know having Young Israel there  didn’t help out an iota.

It wasn't a strictly YI community before the chassidim moved in took over either. There was always a pretty nice mix.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Whatever mix it was, it was exotic for the chasidim and a new chasidish development.

No way in the world can you compare Staten island to Tampa

Staten island is a success, but

It relies on education from BP
It's  relies on grocery / shopping from BP
It's within short driving distance to family
Local government programs and politics are extremely known

Tampa has none of that

On the discussion for the need of a Chasidus or a Ruv

A Chasidus can bring together people a different stages in there observance (for the lack of a better word)
In a Satmer cheder You have an extreme broad mixture of people.
That may not be obvious on the outside.

One of the biggest obstacles a new community faces is education. If it's attracts a very liberal crowd and the school is formed around that. Maybe come very hard to bring in frumer families. And the same around if it's is established around kollel guy's, working liberal guys may not want to move in.


A Chasidus for a dominant strong ruv can set a balance and allow people from all walks of life feel comfortable joining.

I didn't say all were successful but did say the ones that were had that component to it.

Also, how do you define success?
bloominburg is growing   vishnitz is at its max

the Rav and his son the Rosh Kollel were very instrumental in making the new community a success.

Absolutely these are exactly the strengths of SI. On the flip side a house in Tampa I would guess estimate is a 5th of the price if not more..

They're teaching in Yiddish. That's severely limiting.

ive found that most successful communities were built around a yeshiva
Monsey had BME
Lakewood had BMG
KJ had the Satmar yeshivah
to a lesser extent even Cleveland had Telz

in general Litvaks that move out only need a BM to keep the community feel together while chasidim(x lubavitch) must have a spiritual guide. without one it becomes a more bummy atmosphere with little hope of expansion.
The best of both worlds is when the litvaks build a strong torah foundation and then the chasidim come in and add the chesed infrastructures and commerce....
The big spike in NMB now is mostly because of the kollel.
I'm not who you think I am.

The big spike in NMB now is mostly because of the kollel.

And the reason why it's not growing faster is bc of the prohibitive costs.

Lakewood and Ner Yisroel have built a strong network of OOT community kollelim to help grow the cities.

I don't know about the others, but Bloomingburg is over 200 and growing. The reason it hasn't been growing quicker is because of the legal troubles...
At this point, their legal troubles are over. There's not enough people moving there. They haven't built new houses in many years, only 1/4 of the allowed houses are built so far.
