I used to live in Jersey City and would say that I lived New York when talking to people who weren't from the New York metropolitan area. Now I live in Manhattan and I still say that I live New York... because I do.\n\nJersey City is like the sixth borough. L.I. is a little far. To me, Jersey City has always been as much a part of NYC as Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx and Staten Island.

Economy\n \nDowntown Brooklyn is the third largest business district in New York City.Brooklyn's job market is driven by three main factors: the performance of the national/city economy, population flows, and the borough's position as a convenient back office for New York's businesses.[5]\n\nForty-four percent of Brooklyn's employed population, or 410,000 people, work in the borough; more than half of the borough's residents work outside its boundaries. As a result, economic conditions in Manhattan are important to the borough's jobseekers. Strong international immigration to Brooklyn generates jobs in services, retailing and construction.[6]\n\nIn recent years Brooklyn has benefited from a steady influx of financial back office operations from Manhattan, the rapid growth of a high-tech/entertainment economy in DUMBO, and strong growth in support services such as accounting, personal supply agencies and computer services firms.[7]\n\nJobs in the borough have traditionally been concentrated in manufacturing, but since 1975, Brooklyn has shifted from a manufacturing-based economy to a service-based economy. In 2004, 215,000 Brooklyn residents worked in the services sector, while 27,500 worked in manufacturing. Although manufacturing has declined, a substantial base has remained in apparel and niche manufacturing concerns such as furniture, fabricated metals, and food products.[8] The pharmaceutical company Pfizer has a manufacturing plant in Brooklyn that employs 990 workers.\n\nConstruction and services are the fastest growing sectors.[9] Most employers in Brooklyn are small businesses. In 2000, 91% of the approximately 38,704 business establishments in Brooklyn had fewer than 20 employees.[10]\n\nThe unemployment rate in Brooklyn in March 2006 was 5.9%.

Which state are you talking about?\n\nThere are some states that don't even have counties. Louisiana has parishes and Alaska has boroughs.\n\nThere are some states in which the "county" does not have any kind of governing entity at all and all "local" power exists at the town level.

(m)\n\nEstimates on the city's rat population vary widely from about 8 million - or one per citizen - to more than 50 million. Charles Kourbage, owner of Kingsway Exterminating in Brooklyn, guessed there are seven rats per New Yorker, or as many as 56 million.\n\nIn recent years, rodent complaints to the city's Health Department have fluctuated from about 16,400 in fiscal year 2000 up to 19,400 in 2001 and back down to 16,200 in 2002. \n\nInspections have risen to 61,000 in 2002 from 42,000 in 2000, and exterminations are up to 71,000 in 2002 from 51,000 in 2000. \n\n"There have been a lot of improvements that have basically been reflected on the streets," said James Gibson, assistant commissioner for veterinary and pest control services.

I would say that it's a 'ward' or "precinct" or "district".  The terms are often used interchangeably.  And vary from city to city.
