I'm surprised to hear you mention NY in the same context as SF. Has it really come up so much? I'm willing to believe they've developed a respectable industry out there, but so far as I have heard it's mostly just financial and ad industry stuff, nothing terribly interesting.

There are a lot of startups in NYC. Also, if you want to found a startup, there's a lot of capital and the angel scene is quite big.

Digitalocean is a good counter example to your stereotype of NYC companies.
