Westchester is upstate according to New York City. High school kids drive Mercedez, Bmw's, range rovers, etc... to school. There really is no ghetto except for some parts of Westchester, such as Yonkers, White Plains, Peekskill and others. They aren't that bad, but will definitely freak the residents of Rye, Scarsdale, Somers, Bedford.
The county is filled with yuppies, japs, wasps, anything you can think of. Every town thinks that they are better then the next. Competition and Gossip is what makes their worlds go round. Looking good is a must, you have to wear the latest fashion and look ultra sexy in it. The Westchester Mall located in White Plains is a main stop for any Westchesterite who knows what is going on. At this mall they have everything for anyone with money (my favorite mall in the entire country). Each floor basically goes by class... except for some late bloomers. The bottom floor is the richest with Tiffany, Gucci, Lilly, Tumi, and soon to come Chanel, and David Yurman. Second floor is family floor it has lots of childrens stores including Crewcuts the kid store of J. Crew... so cute. But, it also has Louis, Coach, Micheal Kors... etc... then the top floor is for the people that wished they have money.. .minus J. Crew which should be on the second floor.
Northern Westchester wishes they live in Rye and Scarsdale but wont admit it. Somers is extremely wealthy home to many CEO's of Pepsi, IBM etc. Nobody knows this town because there is absolutely nothing in it except for a gated community filled with old people who wont let anything happen without their approval. They just got a CVS that took forever to get the "O.K.".
White Plains is supposedly the new Manhattan, with Trump building gorgeous multi-million dollar apartment buildings, and a Ritz Carlton just opening in the heart of the city. This city is up and coming, it really isn't touristy yet but it will be soon, night life is great and mostly located on Mamaroneck Ave. which yes, does lead in to Mamaroneck.
Orange County, our neighbor wishes they lived in Westchester, and tries desperately to be like us but doesn't pull it off. Wish they were apart of our country clubs but no, not going to happen.
Westchester Country Club one of the oldest and elites of the country clubs, has two locations the main in Rye and the beach club which is really nice. Everyone wearing Lilly, Ralph and my personal fav Vineyard Vines. Westchester is home to many prep schools that molds the children of Westchester in to their parents. "Not doing anything wrong" or at least they dont get caught. Drinking (underage) in their parents' houses or on the local golf course. Always wearing your topsiders, popped collar, and pearls while you chug one is the way to show your "molding".
There are the guidos too which take up most of lower Westchester. Yonkers, White Plains, Harrison have many of them. Most people don't know this term but guido is a guy who has a blow-out hairstyle, extremely tan and looks like he is on roids. A guidette is a girl version but instead of being insanely muscular you are just coked-out skinny. Oh yea, and they all wear Armani and go to Pacha in NYC on the weekends.
Mahopac is a wannabe Westchesterite, but you know when your in Mahopac and it is no Westchester. Extremely trashy.
Westchester is...
"What are you doing today?"
"Driving my porsche and bringing my kid to the club to meet her future husband... plastic surgeons are in"
"No way, Susan! That's exactly what I'm doing"
"I no isn't it great find them a husband and get botox injections for free... so excited!"
Both laugh.
