The Official Argue About Where Upstate NY Is Thread

[ex-powderbroker]

I'm in the ROC and we like it that way. Stay the fuck out of Western NYS. There's nothing to see here. But Buffalo is fine. You can go there as long as you stay west of Batavia.

What a confusing mess.

Is there another state that's this confusing?

TR coming next week

I'll get to the bottom of this

I’d say bring a map but that appears pretty useless.

You could tell you were getting closer to Rochester when the empty beer cans on the side of the road changed from Budweiser to Genesee.

Y’all are confusing the upstate/downstate line with the regional subdivisions.....

This here is the upstate and downstate line of demarcation.



Here are the state mandated regional subdivisions....




of course, there’s lots of ways to skin a cat. You can slice and dice the state into a myriad of permutations





Snowfall totals is the only real measure of upstate that matters....

Don't you guys know that Genny is now a microbrew and Cream Ale has like a 4.8% on Untappd?

Do people from Buffalo like Tim Hortons cause we hate it here.

In your map#3, what town is that prosperous area in the central part?

So it's a far cry from the original version?

Only one way to find out for sure!

That last one is actually helpful, however even it splits Upstate into several N/S lines.

Snowfall and Recreation are nice, however I think I'd like one that is food based too.

The prosperous area looks like Ithaca.

I like how the NY map only includes Bills Mafia; everyone knows the Giants and the Jets (Just End the Season!) are Jersey teams.

Genny wasn't as popular in Buffalo, that's more Labatt and Molson country. When I moved to ROC, it was Genny and Honey Brown on repeat!

Odessa?

pretty much the rest of the state outside of that area is a waste land of non intellects and conservatives
Chubby Jersey and long island college girls were a dime a dozen the hairy hippie dead head girls were more my thing
