Geography of New York
The geography of New York State varies widely. New York covers an area of 54,556 square miles (141,299 km²) and ranks as the 27th largest state by size. The state borders six U.S. states: Pennsylvania and New Jersey to the south, and Connecticut, Rhode Island (across Long Island Sound), Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east. New York also borders the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec to the north.
Additionally, New York touches the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast, and two of the Great Lakes: Lake Erie to the west and Lake Ontario to the northwest. New York lies upon the portion of the Appalachian Mountains system where the mountains generally assume the character of hills and finally sink to a level of the lowlands that surround the great depression filled by Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. Three distinct mountain masses can be identified in the state. The most easterly of these ranges a continuation of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia enters the state from New Jersey and extends northeast through Rockland and Orange counties to the Hudson River, continuing on the east side of that river as the highlands of Putnam and Duchess counties.
A northerly extension of the same range passes into the Green Mountains of western Massachusetts and Vermont. This range is known in New York as the Hudson Highlands. The highest peaks are 1,000 to 1,700 feet (300 to 520 m) above sea level. The rocks which compose these mountains are principally primitive or igneous, and the mountains themselves are rough, rocky and unfit for cultivation. While the state is best known for New York City’s urban atmosphere, especially Manhattan’s skyscrapers, most of the state is dominated by farms, forests, rivers, mountains, and lakes. New York’s Adirondack Park is larger than any U.S. National Park in the contiguous United States. [1] Niagara Falls, on the Niagara River as it flows from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario, is a popular attraction. The Hudson River begins with Lake Tear of the Clouds and flows south through the eastern part of the state without draining lakes George or Champlain. Lake George empties at its north end into Lake Champlain, whose northern end extends into Canada, where it drains into the Richelieu River and then the St. Lawrence.
Four of New York City’s five boroughs are on the three islands at the mouth of the Hudson River: Manhattan Island, Staten Island and Brooklyn and Queens on Long Island. “Upstate” is a common term for New York counties north of suburban Westchester, Rockland and Duchess Counties. Upstate New York typically includes Lake George and Oneida Lake in the northeast; and rivers such as the Delaware, Genesee, Mohawk, and Susquehanna. The highest elevation in New York is Mount Marcy in the Adirondacks. New York is located in the northeastern United States in the Mid-Atlantic Census Bureau division. This was the geography of New York and the conditions in this state and the location of the state in USA.
