Missed the Bronx. If there is any reason why I know the other 4, it's because of American comedy series. The Nanny from Flushing, Queens, lol.

Suburbs of Chicago would be a good quiz. Evanston, Skokie, etc.

Although Liberty Island was ruled part of Manhattan, I'm pretty sure Ellis Island is part of Jersey City.

I'm pretty sure every rapper from the area mentions each of the Burroughs at least once in all they're songs. Nas and the beastie boys especially.

I agree with cardsfan86. As it is now it's too easy, and I'm from Denmark.
