The area more than 5 towns north of the Bronx

anything above Westchester County. deal with it.

Upstate isn't about Texas you morons, it refers to New York. Here in the city where skinny gangstas ryde, you don't wanna be sent upstate. Being sent up north, or upstate, means your about to be introduced to soap on a rope and other assets of prison life. Some great gangstas, the O.G.s, become Gods upstate, and come home and put shit on lock. The rest of them just get their shit put on coc* in prison and are bitc* when they come home.
