Re: International Dialects of English Archive (cool resource)
Downstate New York (is in the City, the burroughs, and Long Island), all have similar influences that come out radically different.
A little further up north, and you have places like Albany which were influenced heavily by the Dutch settlers.
By the time you hit midpoint New York, like Syracuse, you have an accent which may sound surprisingly similar to people in Wisconsin, Michigan, all that. It's part of the Great Northern City Vowel Shift.
However, you get into what we New Yorkers call the North Country, and you run into pockets of settlements that haven't been influenced by the Shift, and there hasn't been a lot of people coming in and changing the accent that was set down by the original settlers.
I did a quick recording where I tried to hit a bunch of words that show what my section of the North Country sounds like.
