"New Yawkas" (that's how I pronounced it growing up) call it soda. "New Yorkers" (the way it is pronounced outside of Long Island, "the city", and parts of Westchester county) are, in my experience, divided. I think that "pop" is common in many rural parts of Western New York (my brother-in-law is from a town of 500 about 40 miles west of Elmira and he uses "pop"). I spent several years, however, in Rochester and never heard anything but "soda."
