About Frankfort
Frankfort is a small village tucked along the Erie Canal in the Mohawk Valley, sitting just a few minutes east of Utica. With a population of around 2,300, it offers a relaxed, small-town feel where neighbors know each other and the pace is unhurried. Commuting into Utica for work, dining, or healthcare is quick and simple, making the village an appealing spot for anyone looking for quiet living with city conveniences close at hand.
Waterfront scenery shapes much of daily life here. Moyer Creek winds right through town and flows past Hilltop Park on its way to the Mohawk River, while the village marina provides easy access for boating and walks along the canal. Frankfort holds onto its proud history from the canal era, settling into a peaceful residential community with scenic green spaces, friendly local spots, and a strong sense of home.
