I'd add that I have extreme West Coast pride as well.

I basically love it all. City, Region, State, and Coast! It runs pretty deep.

Definitely City. For the rest of the state I believe it's state pride.

State pride. It has the most prime location in the US as far as world class cities go. Our cities are shabby, but we do have plenty of urban gems scattered all over the state they get no recognition outside of the state. As much as outsiders hold "our location" against us as being NYC's front yard and Philly's back yard (and not actually having a major stand alone city of our own), NJ is the most conveniently located state in the nation bar none.

State pride all the way.

I love both San Diego and California.

Despite how much I rag on San Francisco, it is just another city that adds to California's supperiority over every other state.

...pretty much.

Although I wouldn't say the rest of the U.S. is Candad, but there's enough pride in this state to make it seem as if Texas is still its own country.

Texas has both State and individual city/town pride.
