Don't flame me if this is considered common knowledge - I've asked a few peeps, and haven't gotten an answer to this question.
What is the geographical breakdown of Jets fans to Giants fans in the NYC/Jersey area? Are certain boroughs primarily Jets or Giants fans? Are jersey folk primarily Jets fans?
I think of Chicago, how the south siders are Sox fans and the northsiders are Cub fans, and figure there's some sort of similar breakdown in New York.
The Jets were originally in Queens and were targeting a more Long Island/Suburban fan base. The Giants have the City proper, New Jersey Conn and upstate suburbs. But people move and things change. I know Jet fans in NJ and Giant fans who grew as Giant fans on Long Island. I'd say it's pretty mixed right now.
