    If your server is located in the USA and New York in particular, then you will have an increased chance of obtaining higher rankings for a keyword phrase that is unique to that State. However, the domain does not make a difference here. Whereas, if you were advertising a uk based company website and you wanted to obtain a higher ranking with the uk part included in a keyword, you will have an increased chance of ranking higher than you would do if it was just a standard .com domain.

    wow If you are right about servers that is news to me, honestly I cannot imagine with huge companies like godaddy out there hosting millions of sites, IP has ANYTHING at all to do with it. I would spend your time gaining links from local sites

    He is asking about the domain extension itself, and yes cc-TLDs do rank better in their respect geographical area.
