This is truly a naive question, borne purely out of ignorance. I live in the tri state area but can count on one hand the number of times I have been to Lakewood. Always to a simcha and never stayed overnight, so, I really dont know what the “matzav” may or may not be. Can someone answer the following question?
What percentage of people/families living in Lakewood are associated with the Yeshiva in a meaningful way?
What percentage of families have a peripheral association with the yeshiva (once learned in the kollel, work in the yeshiva, do business with the yeshiva).
What percentage of people simply live in Lakewood because of the city and have no connection to the yeshiva?
