We do know that Archer is probably from Utica, or at least not from Albany, given that he's never seen using the phrase "steamed hams" to refer to hamburgers.

“Computer: two steamed hams, hot.”
Computer terminal lights on fire
…
Yes I know replicators weren’t available in Archer’s time, but still, it would be a fun scene.
"Good lord, what is happening in there?"
"Aurora Borealis."
"Aurora Borealis? During this shift, on this stardate, in this part of the quadrant, localized entirely within your holodeck simulation of the NX-01?"
"Yes!"
"May I see it?"
"...Computer, end program."
Ticonderago is a fine ship name anyway, and the space station in Starship Troopers is also called that. You might want to pass by even if you don't think Archer was born there
Absolutely! Tocinderoga has the TOS set replica. I'd love to check it out!
Given Archer's test pilot background, I'd like to think he was from Hammondsport, the hometown of Glenn Curtiss.
Honestly, not bad choices.
His dad was a scientist developing the Warp 5 engine, so I'd guess somewhere which either has a major STEM university or a research lab. Some options would include: Ithaca- Cornell University Rochester- Rochester Institute of Technology Rome- US Air Force Rome Lab Syracuse - Syracuse University
Upstate could be any where. What kind of town was it? Farm, actual city? Small town?
If you're going to be visiting a potential birthplace for Archer, I'd have to say he grew up in Watkins Glen, if only because the state park there is beautiful
