Upstate New York

The beautiful subrban part of new york. The real New york. It is a cultural ritzy expensive part of new york. Itis not all city thee is some farms. Upstaters are not hicks they just own lots of land and enjoy having fun. The average size of a yard is 1.5 acres. It is the most beautiful area of new york. It is home to niagra falls. It also has some big cities, Buffalo, Syracuse, Albany. But it is also home to some tiny cities. Phoenix Fulton Baldwinsville. We are the rel tough new yorkers that can stand anything.

Upstate New York

A mountainous version of the Midwest. Country life at its worst. Upstate is very distinctive looking from other similar areas (Western Pennsylvania, the Midwest, New England) and it all looks exactly the same.

Two places upstate 50 miles apart look more like each other than two places in Yonkers two BLOCKS apart.

Upstate New York

Any part of the New York State aside from the five boroughs of New York City, which are, in order of importance: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island.

Nobody gives a flying fuck if you live "near The City"; Long Island, Westchester County, Rockland County, Orange County, Dutchess County, Albany, and the like are all part of Upstate New York State.

Massapequa is Upstate New York.
Riverheads is Upstate New York.
Nyack City is Upstate New York.
New Rochelle is Upstate New York.
Watertown is Upstate New York.
Buffalo is Upstate New York.
The Oysterbay is Upstate New York.

Upstate New York

Upstate is a place where you have to drive your pickup 20 miles to buy a Sears, Roebuck suit or Gingham dress at a local Walmart. Upstate is sterile, it's a fucking joke.

Once I went to Nassau County and everybody somehow knew I was from the Big City.
