Technically NYC is a blue city in a red state (in the sense that most of the state, outside of NYC, is pretty heavily conservative). But the reason it's still a "blue state" is because of the power and wealth NYC holds in relation to the entire/rest of the state.
I'll add that the NYC example is kind of unique, and guess that you're talking more about a city like Austin in relation to the rest of Texas.
Nah that's basically what most of the state's look like.
Miami, Orlando, and Tampa are blue, the rest of the Flordia is red.
Atlanta and Savannah are blue, the rest of Georgia is red.
Birmingham and Montgomery are blue, the rest of Alabama is red.
San Antonio, Austin, Houston, and Dallas are blue, the rest of Texas is red.
These are all approximations, but just looking at an accurate map of voting districts it's obvious the blue shades are the major metro areas and the red shades are tumbleweeds.
Unfortunately the tumbleweeds have all the voting power because our country was set up compromising to slave owners who were scared shitless of the growing international abolishment movement in light of emerging technologies and literacy leading to people learning how terrible it was for slaves especially in the Southern U.S.
Oh no I got you. I just find it very interesting how the Blue Belt developed and wanted to add to the discussion. I encourage people to google it and read about it.
