About Elgin

Elgin is a tiny, peaceful borough nestled in the countryside of southeastern Erie County. Everyday life here is quiet and unhurried, centered around Elgin Community Park and a historic hall that happens to be the oldest borough building in the county. Families send their kids to the Corry Area School District, and neighbors head into nearby Corry or Union City for groceries and dining. With Route 6 and Route 89 right on the edge of town, you get the charm of quiet rural living alongside an easy commute toward Erie or Wattsburg.
