"North Country"

When did it stop being Upstate?

[Secret Agent Man]

There is a NY governor sitting on a warehouse stockpile of ventilators that he’s not releasing now to deal with the current cases that require them,

and instead is blaming other people and groups for not turning over their ventilators to him.

I'm going to sign an executive order …

Methinks Comrade Cuomo is loving this (and many other Comrade Governors and Comrade Mayors).

[1Old Pro]

Sheesh, she has really stepped up her game. Maybe the NY GOP ought to reform and get her into the Governors mansion where she can veto the garbage coming out of the Dem Senate/Assembly.

When did it stop being Upstate?

North Country is the counties that border Canada.

That's how people North of Albany distinguish their region, The Adirondack region.

I grew up near the boundary of Erie and Genessee Counties.

My bad.

Excelsior!

[OttawaFreeper]

Yes, includes places like Watertown, Pulaski, Ogdensburg, Potsdam, Massena, etc.

There’s NYC, there’s Longisland, and then there’s Upstate.

"There is a NY governor sitting on a warehouse stockpile of ventilators that he’s not releasing now to deal with the current cases that require them,"

Interestingly, today he said he doesn't need anymore ventilators. Me thinks many got to him.

No upstate on the official NYC map?

That’s just points west of NYC and outside of NY.

I thought you were a fellow NYer. 😀

Most of NYC is on Long Island.

My friends & family Upstate wish they could secede from NYC & Cuomo..

[Buckeye McFrog]

This could end with a local Sheriffs Dept. vs. State Police shootout in front of a hospital someplace.

[jacknyc]

There’s a NY State prison named Upstate..it’s located in the North Country...Anyway ..Rep, Elise Stefanik does a Great Job..she’s despised by liberals & not afraid to challenge King Cuomo..Harvard gal...

While literally true, NYC residents don’t really think of themselves as Longislanders.

Been the North Country forever, it is the Northern part of the state, Watertown, etc. NY has many areas that are not NYC, but are all upstate - Western NY, Central NY, the Southern Tier, The Finger Lakes, the North Country, and more. Most of them overlap.
