# NY <table class="place-meta"> <tr><td>Local name(s)</td><td>NY (abbreviation for New York State / New York City)</td></tr> <tr><td>Region (today)</td><td>New York, USA</td></tr> <tr><td>Coordinates</td><td>40°43′N 74°00′W</td></tr> </table> ## Overview "NY" is the standard abbreviation for New York State (and, colloquially, New York City). In this vault it appears as a catch-all label attached to records whose place is given simply as "NY," covering both the state and the city of [[New York]]. New York State, in the northeastern United States, and its metropolis were the primary destination and port of entry for millions of Eastern European Jewish immigrants between the 1880s and 1920s. Where a more specific place (borough or town) is known, prefer that note over this catch-all. <small>Sources: Wikipedia — New York (state); Wikipedia — New York City.</small> ## People with events
