Typical small Canadian city with houses getting older as you get closer to downtown. The usual retail plazas scatter the arterial roads with all the usual chains.
In the countryside, tidy farm houses dot the landscape with the occasional farm equipment shop popping up here and there.

Where I grew up (Winnipeg) there were parts of town that looked like a third-world country, or maybe a warzone, replete with Bingo Parlours and Cigarette stands.

That's a big city. All big cities have bad parts, maybe not as bad as Winnipeg, but when I was talking about upstate NY, I was talking about a close to rural area. With closed up gas stations, run down country stores and shabby looking houses, that's all there is.
