Ellicottville

Ellicottville is a town in Cattaraugus County, New York, United States. The population was 1,598 at the 2010 census.[2] The town is named after Joseph Ellicott, principal land agent of the Holland Land Company.

The town of Ellicottville includes a village also called Ellicottville. The town is in the north-central part of the county, north of the city of Salamanca.

The town was first settled circa 1815.

The Town of Ellicottville was established in 1820 from the town of Franklinville (then known as Ischua). The town lost some of its territory when the town of Ashford was formed in 1824. In 1858, a small part of the town was taken to aid the formation of the town of East Otto.

The Village of Ellicottville was formerly the county seat for Cattaraugus County. The county seat moved to Little Valley in May 1868.

The John J. Aiken House and Bryant Hill Cemetery are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[4][5]

Since the establishments of the Holimont and Holiday Valley ski resorts in the town, Ellicottville has seen massive gentrification as mostly Canadian ski enthusiasts have taken up part-time residences in the town. Property values in the town are significantly higher than in the rest of the county. Because the village has restrictive zoning laws that discourage national franchises from entering the village, the Tim Hortons restaurant was constructed outside the village bounds, and Burger King's Ellicottville location was also located outside the village before it closed in 2014.[6] Also in Ellicottville is an unnamed dual-purpose venue that hosts the Ellicottville Championship Rodeo each Independence Day weekend[7] and the Nightmare Hayrides in October.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 45.2 square miles (117.0 km2), of which 45.1 square miles (116.8 km2) is land and 0.08 square miles (0.2 km2), or 0.21%, is water.[2]

Great Valley Creek, a tributary of the Allegheny River, flows through the town. U.S. Route 219, linking the town to the suburbs of Buffalo to the north and to Salamanca to the south, passes through the town. New York State Route 242 runs east–west through the town, intersecting US 219 in the village of Ellicottville. New York State Route 240 ends at NY 242 in the hamlet of Ashford, in the northeast part of the town.

Ellicottville is south of the town of Ashford. The west town line is shared with the towns of East Otto and Mansfield. Ellicottville is north of the town of Great Valley. Ellicottville's east town line is shared with the towns of Franklinville and Machias.
