When I'm outside Brooklyn, I say I live in Brooklyn. If someone asks what part, I say Windsor Terrace. When they say "huh?", I say near Park Slope. I try to get in a reference to the F train where possible.
When asked where I'm from, I say Yonkers. When they say "huh?," I say just north of the Bronx.
