Whether you’ve always called the Empire State your home or you’ve recently transplanted here, it’s always relatively easy to spot a New Yorker out in the wild. Sometimes if you find yourself around someone that’s not from the Northeast, all it will take is the sound of your New York accent to let the room know where you’re from, while other times it’s not as easy for outsiders to put their finger on exactly where you’re from. If you’ve ever wondered what the telltale signs are that highlight how much of a New Yorker you are, then check out our list below.

2. You also assume that you'll always be just a quick, scenic drive away from the mountains.
With both of our beautiful Adirondack and Catskill Mountain ranges here in New York State, you might just find yourself speechless when visiting one of America's more flat states.
