Carrollton is a town in Cattaraugus County, New York, United States. The population was 1,297 at the 2010 census.[2] The name comes from an early settler.

Carrollton is on the south border of Cattaraugus County. It is southeast of the city of Salamanca.

History

The town was first settled around 1822. The Town of Carrollton was formed in 1842 from the town of Great Valley.

In 1877, the community of Limestone set itself off from the town by incorporating as a village. In 2011, this community reverted to being a hamlet within the town because voters agreed to dissolve the village in 2009.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|109.66|km2|disp=flip}}, of which {{convert|109.55|km2|disp=flip}} is land and {{convert|0.11|sqkm|disp=flip|2}}, or 0.14%, is water.[2]

The Allegheny River flows through the northern portion of the town, from southeast to northwest. Tunungwant Creek (also known as "Tuna Creek" for short) flows south to north through the middle of the town, joining with the Allegheny near Riverside Junction. The south town line is the border of McKean County, Pennsylvania.

The Southern Tier Expressway (combined Interstate 86 and New York State Route 17) cross the north part of the town, and U.S. Route 219 passes north-south through the town, joining New York State Route 417 north of the Allegheny River.
