Can a recession occur in a city or state while the rest of the country has a booming economy?

I know that a recession can be specific to a particular industry/sector in a country. But can it be specific to a particular region in a country?

We have been watching this play out in the US of all places. The entire country has posted great growth, if you walk around New York or San Francisco you'll think we're better than we've ever been. Then you take a trip down to Detroit or St Louis, and people are there reminiscing about the 80s when people actually had jobs.
