Geography

[edit]

Frankfort village is located in the northeastern part of the town of Frankfort at 43°2′14″N 75°4′18″W / 43.03722°N 75.07167°W / 43.03722; -75.07167 (43.037267, -75.071879).[4] According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 1.0 square mile (2.7 km2), of which 0.02 square miles (0.04 km2), or 1.67%, are water.[2]

The village is bordered to the north by the Mohawk River. Moyer Creek flows through the village to the Mohawk River.

Frankfort is at the northern terminus of New York State Route 171 (Litchfield Street) with the old New York State Route 5S (Main Street). The new NY 5S does not intersect NY 171; making NY 171 the only state route not to intersect another state route. NY 5S bypasses the village to the south and west, leading west 10 miles (16 km) to Utica and southeast 2.5 miles (4.0 km) to Ilion.

Lying between Frankfort and the Mohawk River is the community of North Frankfort. East Frankfort borders Frankfort on the southeast and Corrado Corners on the southwest.
