Funny Map Shows How New Yorkers See The Rest Of America [Photo]
Us New Yorkers are definitely one of a kind. From surviving the brutally cold and snowy winters to being the home of the most populated city in America, we are a different breed. Other Americans have their opinions of us and we definitely have our opinions. This hilarious map I came across on Instagram shows how New Yorkers see the rest of the country and New York. Obviously, this map is based on how a New York City resident sees the United States because even New York State is listed as 'New York City.' As someone who lived in Florida for many years, it's hysterical that the state is labeled as 'where they shot Cops at.' Other highlights include seeing the state of Georgia as just Atlanta and Texas as 'The South.'
I think it's fair that we poke a little fun at the rest of America. There are plenty of stereotypes out there about New Yorkers. Here are some of the things the rest of the country thinks about us:
- People from New York City are always in a rush
- People upstate are all country bumpkins
- Everyone in Buffalo LOVES the snow
- Everyone in New York City is rude
- People in New York always wear Timberland boots and fitted baseball caps
- New Yorkers think they are better than everyone
- Everyone in New York City lives in a shoebox and has 7 roommates
