Yeah I agree. Granted, I grew up in between Philly and NYC, and my fiance grew up in Fairfield. But I had service electric cable growing up that had Comcast Philadelphia, the YES Network, and the MSG to watch all the regional teams. Along with two NBCs and two local Fox stations in case you wanted to watch the different local news. The regional rail networks are linked together. Six Flags, the Jersey Shore, Mister Softee, etc are shared cultural things. Many more people commute back and forth for work between philly and nyc than the opposite way.
A little dated but some perspective
