This file lists all populated places in New York State. It includes all
incorporated cities, villages and towns, Indian reservations, and selected
unincorporated places. In rural areas unincorporated places with at least 100
people are shown and in heavily populated areas unincorporated places are
shown only if space permits and they have over 2,500 people.
This page is part of the USGenWeb
Project. Modeled after the Kentucky
GenWeb Project which was organized by a group of genealogists in March and
April 1996, the idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in
Kentucky, where collected databases would be stored. In June 1996, it was
decided to expand the project to include all states.
