It’s time to split the Empire State into three autonomous regions.

6/9/2021

 
The State of New York contains a tremendously diverse population divided among highly differentiated regions. Most of the state consists of small- to medium-sized communities set in a rural and suburban climate, generally marked by moderately conservative values. Meanwhile, the counties that make up New York City are significantly more left-leaning politically. The other downstate counties and Long Island are also unique from both upstate and NYC.
