my be from Newsa Yorka anda mesa liken de city.
(my pathetic excuse to talk like Jar Jar, I'm on a bet today to talk like him - I don't think I did a good job translating that into words.)
Okay, I am from NY, I don't like the stae at all. I do like NYC where I live and as a child (not that much now) always thought the city should declare itself a state (or small country) and call itself by one of the nicknames that the city has (it's also the name of a book about NYC) which is Gotham. New York City would be Gotham City, Times Square would be Gotham Square, etc. Our logo wouldn't be "The Big Apple" it would be "Got Ham?". (joking)
:o That was embarrassing...............
What I like about NYC would have to be living here all my life and still finding new things to see and do in the city.
P.S. Yeah, NYC has also been called the Great Metropolois if I'm correct.

Well, I'm from Seoul, South Korea -- that was where I was born. But I've lived throughout different parts of NYS for most of my life. I would have to say the best thing about NYS are the Adirondacks, they are just gorgeous.

Well, I was born and raised in Florida, but now I live in Vermont, that sliver of land between New York and New Hampshire.
Green Mountain State!!
Let's see, I hate maple syrup, I hate snow, I hate cows (not really the cows themselves, but the smell - whoo!), but I looooove Ben & Jerry's ice cream (the factory's in Waterbury just over the mountain from me), love the beautiful mountains (even in winter), and love the laid back atmosphere.

Born and raised in Illinois. Spent the last 4 years or so in Wisconsin, and just moved to Maryland at the beginning of the year.
I liked Illinois because I lived in the Chicago 'burbs, so I had the "big city" to go spend my time in.
I lived in Madison Wisconsin, and spent a lot of time in the less populated parts of that state, which was nice, in that you didn't have the city "attitude" that you got from so many people in the Chicago area. People in Wisconsin seemed a lot less focused on image and those sorts of things. And of course, the slightly hilly, woodsy areas were nice to relax in.
Right now, I'm living south of Baltimore. Its cool here, since I've got two major cities to visit - Baltimore and DC. And living inbetween, the area is quiet and wooded and peaceful.
