Oniontown is a road and community[1][2] in Dutchess County, New York, United States, located 1.5 miles south of the hamlet of Dover Plains, in the Town of Dover, partially known for the historically off-putting demeanor of its residents towards outsiders.
[3] In 1947, International News Service reporter James L. Kilgallen voyaged into Oniontown and wrote three articles about the place including; “Escape from Atomic Age: Real Life Tobacco Road 100 Miles from Broadway”.
[4][5] It was briefly the subject of worldwide media attention in 2008, when a derisive video about the area published on YouTube led to visiting outsiders being attacked.
