I'm trying to follow this article. It says New York has raised it to $15... but it takes places in cities faster than rural areas? Am I reading this right?

Looks like it hits 15 in NYC by 2019 and 2022 in Westchester and Long Island. Upstate goes to 12.50 in the same time frame...?

It's a tiered approach like Oregon.

Business with less than 10 employees have 4 years long to comply. I wonder what percentage of New York City businesses that is.

It's a tiered approach, which is necessary due to the vastly different economic situation in the NYC metro and Upstate.
