Definition

For coverage purposes, metro New York is New York, NY together with every incorporated community within 99 miles that is closer to New York than to any other metro anchor — 28 communities and about 2,429,467 people beyond the core city. Communities are assigned to their nearest anchor, so the boundaries follow travel distance rather than county lines.

Geography

The anchor sits at 40.7128°, -74.0060°. Coverage extends in 6 compass directions from it, reaching 99 miles at its furthest. The largest surrounding community is Newark, NJ — 278,427 people, 8.9 miles west.

Climate

Between October and April the New York area averages an overnight low of 35.7°F and reaches 2°F at its coldest, with 165 days below 45°F — about 5.4 months. A cat’s thermoneutral zone starts around 86°F against a typical indoor 64–72°F, so those are the months an indoor cat here is actively hunting for a heat source.
