Having moved to New York from the Midwest the funniest thing about the New Yorkers is the way they interact with each other, nicest people but just different

That intro. wow.

One more thing. I know a guy who changes accents every few sentences. He'll start out, say, talking with a Brooklyn accent, then switch to Russian, then to German, then to Southern, then to Italian...He's really entertaining.

Accent is one thing attitude is another thing

But--there is bleedover, too. Sometimes you can have an Italian New Yorker who grows up around Jewish New Yorkers and sounds Jewish, and vice versa. So there is also somewhat of a neighborhood accents, but it's more ethnically based. And yes, the accents are disappearing, at least in Manhattan and large swaths of Brooklyn (the parts that have been gentrified and settled by Americans from other parts of the USA).

We in Vancouver love the NYC accent also.

i love new york accents. i try doing it but i could never get it down

It's of an exaggeration to talk of NY accents divided by boroughs and neighborhoods--however, thereare divisions in the NY accent based on ethnicity. Italian New Yorkers sound different from Jewish New Yorkers, who sound different from Irish New Yorkers, who sound different from Puerto Ricans and the original languages of these ethnic groups influence the various NY accents, etc. Of course, these ethnic groups (in the past at least) dominated certain neighborhoods and boroughs.

i have a new york accent and they make fun at me at work.
ShmorgelBorgel (15 years ago)
Therefore, since certain neighborhoods in certain boroughs were dominated by certain ethnicities--some people think there is a borough/neighborhood-specific accent--but not exactly. A Bensonhurst, Brooklyn-Italian NY accent is not that different from a Staten Island-Italian NY accent, and a Jewish NY accent from Forest Hills, Queens is not that different from a Jewish NY accent from Canarsie. A Puerto Rican New Yorker from the South Bronx sounds like a Puerto Rican from East Harlem, too...
