The life of a person in New York City, and the life of a person in Upstate, NY differ from each other in crazy rediculous ways.
NYC: Their life is more fast-paced. They tend to have more money, better jobs, & things are just more entertaining there. The things they have/want are more expensive & it's just more fun.
A person in NYC would consider me to be an Upstate NY'er, but in Rochester, we consider ourselves Western, NY. Anyways, we're more suburbian, boring & middle to low-class. There's not many things to do or see, & we're a lot cheaper.

beckyboo has covered long island(the suburbian part) and the city, but she actually lives 40 minutes away. silly girl. but i'll cover upstate new york for you. In upstate new york, there are some suburbs, but its mostly poorer/lower-middle class rural folk. some people are amish and a lot of people there are orthodox jewish.
New York State's just really strange cause it's three sections are so defined from eachother.
NYC=city, but well you knew that =P
long island=suburbs
upstate=rural

NYC is like no other place in the rest of NY. In the city, it's busy, crowded, high powered, diverse; most of the world knows what it's like. Some parts of it are what you see in magazines; high fashion, expensive, Times Square, etc, and some parts are run down, drugged up, and filled with the homeless.
I don't think any other city in NY is like NYC. Most people live in the suburbs; houses with lawns, backyards, etc. I live about 30 minutes away from NYC and where I live, people visit semi-often.
I haven't been to upstate NY much, but a lot of it is historical. Once I went on a field trip there and we saw a governor's mansion, and a bunch of other historical sights that I forgot :P.

i think the difference is because of the entertaining in new york city, its just always been a well known place. also, its very populated. about the upstate, im not sure about.
hope this helped.
