New York, also called New York State, is the state in the Northeastern United States that borders New England, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Canada and reaches both the Atlantic Ocean and the Great Lakes. The source divides it into the Downstate area around New York City and Long Island and the larger Upstate area, and notes that Western New York, home to Buffalo and Rochester, is sometimes considered a separate region. In this atlas the entry gathers movements, denominations and rites recorded as arising in the state, including its western part and New York City.
