Staten Island is separated from New Jersey by the Arthur Kill and the Kill Van Kull, and from the rest of New York by New York Bay.

North American area code 917 is a New York City telephone area code for all of the five boroughs (Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx). It was the first cellular/pager/voicemail area code for the city and is an overlay to 212, 347, 718, 646, and 929. Occasionally, 917 is also assigned to landlines (most commonly in Manhattan, in large part because of the sparse availability of numbers in area code 212). ^source
