A little tie in here... I live in Apex NC. I moved here from NY in July 1996. Whenever a "native" asks me where I am from I answer "NY." Almost every single time they ask back "what part of the city?"

I don't know what the problem is down here that causes "natives" to think NYC is the entire state. I didnt't think Mayberry was the entire state of NC before I moved here. And I am no Rand-McNally.

Can you blame them, though? From my experience, pretty much the entire population of NYC is convinced that the edge of the known world is somewhere in Westchester county. When half the population of New York state is convinced that NYC is all there is, is it a surprise that outsiders are confused also? ;)
