Ulster County is largely the Catskills. The Catskills are upstate.Not being from NY I would propose that the Upstate is anything in NY outside of this map.

Upstate is not necessarily the North County
Very trueYeah, the North Country is different. I don’t think it’s borders are in dispute. But the idea that Kingston isn’t upstate would surprise a lot of people. You get off the Kingston exit to go to Belleayre and the pizza is definitely upstate quality so ….

This^^^^^I think whether or not Putnam County and the Hudson Highlands are upstate is the question. The upstate line is either the Southern boundary (Bear Mountain Bridge) of Putnam or the Northern (Breakneck and Storm King) Everything North of 84 is definitely upstate but that’s where Downstate Correctional Facilty is so that complicates things. Ellenville, New Paltz, Rhinebeck, Millbrook, Amenia and Kingston are definitely upstate. I guess there could be an argument for Poughkeepsie which is where Metro North ends.

The real question is what defines "downstate?" For me it's the most northern stops of Metro-North.First of all, this thread belongs right here. Let’s not get all moderator’y about it. Now I have spent (wasted) a lot of time pondering this. I’ve listened to a lot of different points of view and as far as I can tell, the line between upstate and downstate goes from the western border of Rockland County, along the eastern/southern edge of Harriman/Bear Mountain Parks, across the Bear Mountain Mountain Bridge, south of Camp Smith, northern border of Peekskill to the Taconic and then along Route 6 until it bears north and more or less east from there to the CT border. Or thereabouts.
Others have proposed the Metro North rule before but technically that would include Port Jarvis and all of Orange County. I feel like Orange should be upstate. They’ve still got an awful lot of cows in Orange County.The real question is what defines "downstate?" For me it's the most northern stops of Metro-North.
