The Krayot or Qerayot (Hebrew: הקריות, "townships") (plural of Kirya) are a cluster of four small cities and two neighbourhoods of Haifa founded in the 1930s on the outskirts of the city of Haifa, Israel, in the Haifa Bay area.[1][2][3][4]

A plan was formulated in 2003, and again in 2016 by Interior Minister Aryeh Deri, to merge the Krayot into one municipality.[6] A proposed name for this city is Zvulun (after the biblical Zebulun, and the Zvulun Valley).[citation needed]
