Northern California 

Anywhere geographically located near or North of San Francisco bay. In more recent years, Northern California has been referred to as 'Nor Cal', a dismal attempt by a young crowd to compete with Southern California's already abhorred 'So Cal' slogan.

1. n, Northern California is very beautiful compared to the barren wasteland of Southern California

2. n, Northern California is longer to pronounce than 'Nor Cal', but one doesn't sound like an ass.

Northern California 

Northern California is considered San Francisco and up. It is a million times more beautiful than ugly fake Southern California and doesn't have 3 Starbucks' on every scorner.

Includes the Golden Gate Bridge, beautiful Redwood forests, Mt. Shasta, acres of wine country, and its beaches actually have blue water (instead of murky green/brown) and beautiful, big boulders.

The further north you go, the less development and fake plastic orange people with unnecessary amounts of money there are, and the more untouched landscape and scenery there is.

Me: I went on a roadtrip up Highway 1 to Northern California today.
You: OMG, I'm soo jealous, San Bernadino County sucks so much!

Northern California 

The region of California that is everything north of San Jose. It is MOSTLY untouched from the rest of California's chaos and is the only conservative and beautiful place left in California. It consists of pine tree covered mountains, peaceful suburban towns (like Redding, CA), and abandoned buildings that are prime for urban explorers. Unfortunately, the California plague doesn't stop evolving, so the beautiful forests that everyone knows and loves will be burned down in the next 10 years

"I'm from California." - Californian

"Oh don't you go vote blue now, ya hear?!" - Texan

"Don't worry I'm from Northern California" - Californian
"What's the difference? - Texan

Northern California Crip 

Crip Gangs that fall under North California's Prison/Street Politics. Cities in the the Central Valley are also included, as Bakersfield begins as the border of the Nor-Cal Crip Card and ends in Sacramento. Crip Gangs in Los Angeles City, L.A. County & San Diego are Considered So-Cal. Bakersfield, Hanford, Fresno, Merced, Stockton, Modesto, Seaside, San Jose, and Sacramento Crips function under the North California Car (Section).

Person 1: Hey Kiwe, Did you know there were Eight Trays, Hoovers and Eastcoast Crips, upstate?

Person 2: Yeah they've been up that way since the 70s and 80s. Most of them absorbed into the local gangs and are called something totally different. All of them are Northern California Crip, their hood politics are different.
