I'm originally from the Syracuse area and never heard the term "upstate" until I went to college. At first I thought they meant the Adirondacks, but they meant Westchester.
Upstate New York (UNY) means different things to different people:

Generally UNY is north of NYC
I consider UNY north of Yonkers. There are some rural places in Westchester but things really get green in Putnam and above.
To those in TRIBECA upstate is anywhere north of 34th Street!
