Actually, the Northeast isn't all that well populated away from the
coastline. If meteorites landed in western Massachusetts, Vermont,
New Hampshire or upstate New York, you're talking a lot of forest
and mostly rural area.

I haven't read any reports of sonic booms, so I wouldn't get my hopes
up that anything will ever be found. --Rob
