I know there was a NY role call earlier, but way too many people were reppin' the city. Who is upstate? Anyone in Albany, Syracuse, or Utica?

No, don't even say that. My furnace is waiting for a part and can't run it until it's fixed. Right now it's raining and 59 deg. I closed the windows for the first time in 2 months.

Dude, it's been sixty or less damn near every night since the summer started at my house. A couple nights in July and August we dipped down to 48 and 49. I think the warmest day we had all summer, it was seventy that night.

Two of my neighbors (brothers, live next door to each other) have been in central New York for twenty plus years, and still have that damned accent.

well hopefully they are smarter than me since I misread the title with a quick glance as "updated" NY Rolecall.. Oh well.. However, since I spent time many years ago in Binghamton and they did not consider themselves "upstate" and actually somehow thought it as an insult, WHAT is Upstate NY? To me it was anyone north of NYC, all relative.

I've said this somewhere else before but it bears repeating, so here goes, paraphrased of course.
Growing up in Jersey, like you said, anything outside "the city" was "upstate". (You can blame whomever named the whole state and the city that's barely even a part of it the same thing for that.) Now I live between Syracuse and Albany. There's no doubt that I am considerably north of a lot of the state. But when we say "upstate New York" around here in reference to where we live, we're met with "we're not upstate New York; we're central New York!" by people who have lived ere their whole lives. So I guess to them upstate would be just shy of Canada?

My understanding is, no matter where you live in NY state, anything north of you is upstate and anything south of you is downstate. I never heard the term downstate ever as a kid since I live on the south shore so downstate from me is the ocean.

*Nods.* Mmm. I guess. But that's just silly to me. Even here, I never hear anyone say "downstate". Very curious indeed.

It's all about perspective. Anything below me is downstate. We are upstate to everyone to the south. Anyone above me is "up north." We all talk funny.
