New York State has outlawed snake species that get large (burmese, african rock, reticulated) and all venomous species.



Boas are still safe (at least outside of NYC, NYC has its own rules that can differ from the rest of the state), though.



However, local governments can always make whatever laws they want regardless, so check the city or town you want to move to, no matter WHAT the state laws may be.
