a small city in central new york that despite what people think is not a hick town. there are no cows and no farms. we do speak with an accent but we PRONOUNCE "l"s but we flatten our "a"s. just because half the city is of italian heritage doesnt make it an italian city. the other half is Polish.
East Utica is Italian, West Utica is Polish

A city in Upstate New York. My grandfather lives there. It is a very Italian town, I think that gives it charecter, but you can come up with your own conclusions about that. Utica is an all american town. For such a small city (about 60,000) it has a lot of interesting things about it, utica sausauge, utica pizza. It's a decent place.
Utica is between Syracuse and Albany

A gang infested albanian and chaldean city in michigan, north of detroit. like all uticas, it is a dying wasteland. Must be something unlucky about the name
"Hey man wanna go to utica?!"
"Hell no, only the albanian mafia lives there!"

A native of Utica, NY who exhibits an expresionless look of despair and emptiness, arising from having spent an entire lifetime in Utica. It is the expression of having lost all hope and the realization that they will never be able to get out of that awful city.
Are you bored and depressed, or is that just your Utica Face?
A city in Upstate New York, incorporated in 1832, that is the population center of the Utica-Rome Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau.
Like many mid-sized cities in the Northeast and Rust Belt, Utica was a thriving manufacturing, political and cultural community in the late 19th and early-to-mid 20th century. After a period of decline, it has recently seen a wave of urban investment and redevelopment. Public and private investments totaling hundreds of millions of dollars include: a $480 million downtown medical center campus scheduled for completion in 2022, reclamation and residential development of multiple industrial-era buildings, an expanded downtown arena/auditorium that recruited professional hockey and indoor soccer franchises.
While challenges and lingering negativity stemming from decades of decline remain, the city is seeing increasing numbers of next-gen residential professionals and entrepreneurs. The international distance running community has known about the city's welcoming culture and upbeat summer vibe for decades, as Utica is home to one of the world's largest 15K competitions, the Boilermaker Road Race. And then there's the critically acclaimed FOOD, present in an astounding number of urban farm-to-fork, ethnic and international restaurants, cafes and eateries.
When someone asks me for an example of quintessential Utica cuisine, I point them to the New York Times article on Utica greens, "Utica Greens: A Central New York Staple With Multiple Identities."

Basically a synonym for nepotism, this word derives from Utica, NY (a city of approx. 60,000 in Central NY) where high-paying jobs are widely asserted to be obtained through family and acquaintance connections rather than through education and proven experience. These illegally acquired jobs often come with various perks and kickbacks that are as questionable as the means used to obtain the job.
