But I would agree Brooklyn has the strongest identity though given that is used to be an independent city, has a downtown, sports teams etc.
The Bronx in contrast really developed as an extension of Manhattan.

That’s interesting about the Queens addresses. And now that I think about it, when I lived in Whitestone, mail was usually addressed to me in “Whitestone, NY”
