Long Island, which is a suburb of NYC (which is to say, really, a suburb of Manhattan).
Then again, the entire US is a suburb of NYC.

Was Washington DC until recently, now I guess I'm part of the great flyover nation.
I live in San Jose, which is not part of San Francisco, despite being near it. (And I remember when the World Cup was at Stanford, and was billed as the "San Francisco World Cup.")
You could have simplified your poll by having "California" and "NotCalifornia" as the options.

SF Bay Area is close enough. I don't live in The City either (Lafayette, actually), but Lala is near enough for outsiders.
Santa Cruz, not even actually in the San Francisco Bay Area, though sometimes people seem to include it in "South Bay," which doesn't make sense as we are actually on the _north_ side of the Monterey Bay. Also, mapmakers can't make up their minds as to whether we are in Nrthern r Southern California.
Texas, which is neither part of The South nor part of The West, but an entity of its own.
Connecticut (in the outermost fringe of the NY metro area)
(At various former times, Staten Island, New Hampshire, and Iowa)

Buffalo, NY, where our motto is "We're doing much better than Detroit!"
Really? I even get out there occasionally! (Durham, NC, here, but I work in Raleigh) *waves hi*
Hog butchers.
And, along its fringes, beam jockeys.

The Upper Midwest, Minneapolis yah betcha!
Hooray for the North American rainforest!
Burbs of Sacramento, Kadeephonia.
Note: I'm lying. But Brooklyn is nice this time of year.
Sunnyvale, CA. I sometimes get mail addressed to Sunnydale. No, we're the other town with a hell mouth. (2 cities south of Stanford, snugged up to Cupertino, home of Apple)
Southern Louisiana, which is occasionally part of the South and occasionally another country altogether and quite often not connected to the northern part of the state.
