Do you identify more with your city, area, state, or region?
At what level do you most identify with?
The individual town or city you live in? The metro area? The state? Or the entire region?

If I had to rank it, it would probably go like this:
1) Metro: DC metro area
2) Area: Northern Virginia
3) City: Alexandria
4) State: Virginia
5) Region: East Coast

While growing up, I identified with metro area. (Canton)
Now, though, I identify with my city. (Youngstown)

I guess I identify with my own city, and my state, Colorado, more than my metro area, Denver. In fact, up here in Boulder County, a lot of people feel they are totally separate from Denver. I do not agree, but I don't feel I live in "Denver".
However, when I am out of state, I will usually say "Near Denver" when someone asks me where I live.

My area first.
Then my city.
Then Region.
And finally state.

When I lived in WI I identified with my city. Now that I live in Florida (and nobody is from here) I identify with being from the midwest. I currently live in the suburbs of Tampa-St. Pete, now I identify myself is living in the Tampa Bay area to outsiders, Pinellas County to people who live in Tampa, and North Pinellas to everyone else.
Complicated, huh?
