| : Please vote for your favorite definitions of "Upstate NY".

Depends on the perspective of the person making the observation.

To a NYC doctor I know upstate is anything north of Yonkers.

As a kid from Queens in the 1960's to me it was the Catskills, My Uncle's
place in Westbrookville in Sullivan Cty, my grandparents place in Smallwood
and Howe Caverns.

To someone in Lake George it is along the Canadian border.

To me in Orange Cty today upstate is Albany and north, Rochester , etc.

Ask someone in Rochester where upstate is. They might suggest Canada.
