Rockland county is a suburb of NYC. It is neither upstate, nor is it a barren wasteland. Upstate is anything north of the NY/PA line. A lot of Rocklanders live less than 2 min. from NJ, which definitely does not imply "up"state. 15 miles NW of the city? Yup, that's Orangetown. Closer to the city than a lot of places in Westchester.
Rockland County is not upstate. I don't care where you're from. I live closer to the city than most Long Islanders.

contrary to what people from westchester like to tell themselves to make themselves feel better, the average income of Rockland County residents is higher then the income of Westcheser County residents. (you can look this up on an oficial website if you dont bleive this)
like every county, rockland has some very nice and upper class areas, and some not as nice areas.

Get the ace rockola mug.Southern most New York county west of the Hudson River. Upstate only to those from one of the five boroughs of NYC or from the far western part of Long Island. Rockland is not overdeveloped as Westchester, and its towns are not mass-produced such as those in Nassau or Suffolk counties.
Rocklander: My house is the yellow one on the left.
guy from Westchester: couldn't afford a house like this in Westchester?
Rocklander: Couldn't find more than a quarter acre of property except near Putnam County or that wasn't already a golf course.
Long Islander: Why are all the houses different? They aren't even all yellow!

Get the Rockland, NY mug.A place located twenty minutes from the city. If you're not a local, you'll wonder why it's called Rockland County and there's a town in it called Stony Point. A place where everyone knows everyone else and everyone's children attend the same three middle schools.
"I've always wanted to live close to the city, but I hate Orange County, where should I go?" "Live in Rockland County!"

Get the Rockland County mug.Place with big malls, cheap pool halls, and next to Jersey for cheap gas. South end is really part of New Jersey. Mostly rich and white except for Nyack, Spring Valley, and Haverstraw, in which half the town is as hood as School Street or Crown Heights.
