The true dividing line between New England and the reach of New York is determined by the towns and their residents that support the Sox and those who follow the Yankees. There are no other teams and as a Mets fan I can accept that reality, especially since 1986. The border between Red Sox Nation and the evil empire seems to coalesce around New Haven and Litchfield Counties and follow the Massachusetts-Vermont Line to Canada.
The Boston Globe and the New York Times run articles every few years that attempt to map the two competing territories. The frontier is fluid based on the success of either team and the cable providers that prefer NESN to YES, although in some areas both are carried.
