Wellllll ... at least to the IND, it was "UPTOWN and THE BRONX" so I suppose Melrose is upstate to somebody. Up here though, it's pretty much come down to where the city influence ends (aside from touristas) and the MTA has kinda defined that all for us. No MTA taxes? Then you're *finally* upstate. :)

Got friends from there as well as Middletown. Whole area went in the dumper when the railroad stopped going that way. Now "dumper" with reference to Orange county is not comparable to a nabe in the city going in the dumper, it means "abandon ship for elsewhere" usually because it's a kinda dying place.

But I heard most that commute to NYC just drive up to Campbell Hall and catch the train from there.

Yep ... trains used to go right through town. Had plenty of friends from both places, a couple of them moved up here.

my point is if you're going to move, move so far away, your neighbors won't be from the Bronx, Queens, or Yonkers

One area that's far away and still has people like that are the northern suburbs of Miami, Florida. It's like NYC with palm trees...

Only white people you see there are Jewish people from NY/LI and Italians in the witness protection program.

Wouldn't it make more sense for anybody in the witness protection program to live somewhere less populated and/or in a place where they are less likely to bump into somebody they know? Like Bluefield, West Virginia as an example?

LOL. True. But take a guy like Sal Vitale. How can he live in WV and not stand out? He's an Italian from Brooklyn. He would blend in perfectly in Broward County, Florida.

There are witness protection or former witness protection Italians living in plain site down there. One opened a pizzeria and ended up getting in trouble with the law again.

Fabio Bartalotta and Anthony Tabbita are two other names that come to mind and Florida Italians from NY who have been in witness protection.

Yeah, I guess you're right about the Italians blending in better in South Florida. Interestingly, my white Jewish dad retired to Athens, Georgia. Even though he lived most of his life in Brooklyn, he never wanted to retire where there were ex-New Yorkers. His favorite part of Florida is by Pensacola, where nobody from New York goes.

I know. I knew a former Astoria, Queens resident who moved to Fort Walton Beach, Florida (near Pensacola) and opened a pizza shop. But places like SOUTH Florida are where large numbers of former New Yorkers migrate, the other places might have just a few here and there.

There was a ruthless opportunist who didn't profit from her actions. Sometimes there is justice.
