Niagara County is a county located in the U.S. State of New York. As of 2000, the population is 219,846. The county seat is Lockport. The name is from an Indian word meaning "bisected bottom lands."History
When counties were established in New York State in 1683, the present Niagara County was part of Albany County. This was an enormous county, including the northern part of New York State as well as all of the present State of Vermont and, in theory, extending westward to the Pacific Ocean. This county was reduced in size on July 3, 1766 by the creation of Cumberland County, and further on March 16, 1770 by the creation of Gloucester County, both containing territory now in Vermont. On March 12, 1772, what was left of Albany County was split into three parts, one remaining under the name Albany County. One of the other pieces, Tryon County, contained the western portion (and thus, since no western boundary was specified, theoretically still extended west to the Pacific). The eastern boundary of Tryon County was approximately five miles west of the present city of Schenectady, and the county included the western part of the Adirondack Mountains and the area west of the West Branch of the Delaware River. The area then designated as Tryon County now includes 37 counties of New York State. The county was named for William Tryon, colonial governor of New York. In the years prior to 1776, most of the Loyalists in Tryon County fled to Canada. In 1784, following the peace treaty that ended the American Revolutionary War, the name of Tryon County was changed to honor the general, Richard Montgomery, who had captured several places in Canada and died attempting to capture the city of Quebec, replacing the name of the hated British governor. In 1789, Ontario County was split off from Montgomery. In turn, Genesee County was created from Ontario County in 1802. Niagara County was created from Genesee County in 1808. It was, however, larger than the present Niagara County. From 1814 to 1817, records of Cattaraugus County were divided between Belmont (the seat of Allegany County) and Buffalo (then in Niagara County). In 1821, Erie County was created from Niagara County.Geography
Niagara County is in the extreme western part of New York State, just north of Buffalo and adjacent to Lake Ontario. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 2,952 km² (1,140 mi²). 1,354 km² (523 mi²) of it is land and 1,598 km² (617 mi²) of it is water. The total area is 54.12% water.Demographics

There are 95,715 housing units at an average density of 71/km² (183/mi²). The racial makeup of the county is 90.70% White, 6.15% Black or African American, 0.94% Native American, 0.58% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 0.40% from other races, and 1.21% from two or more races. 1.33% of the population are Hispanic or Latino of any race.

Niagara Falls is located on the Niagara River in eastern North America, on the border between the United States and Canada. The name refers to three separate waterfalls: the American Falls, the Bridal Veil Falls, and the Horseshoe Falls (known in Canada as the Canadian Falls). While not exceptionally high, Niagara Falls is very wide, and a large volume of water passes over it. The scenic view attracts millions of visitors, especially in the summertime. The name "Niagara" is said by some to originate from an Iroquois word which can be interpreted as "Thunder of Waters". Niagara Falls was brought to the world's attention in the 17th century by the explorer Father Louis Hennepin, who also discovered the Falls of Saint Anthony.The Falls drop about 170 feet although the American Falls have a clear drop of only 70 feet before reaching a jumble of rocks at its base. The American Falls are 1060 feet wide and the Canadian Falls are about 2600 feet wide. There is nighttime illumination of both falls from Canada.
A portion (50% to 75%) of the river's flow is diverted from the visible waterfall to hydroelectric turbines that supply power to nearby areas of the United States and Canada.
Ships go around Niagara Falls by means of the Welland Canal (see Saint Lawrence Seaway).
The area immediately around the falls includes the cities of Niagara Falls, Ontario and Niagara Falls, New York.
An upstream ice jam stopped almost all water flow over Niagara Falls on March 29, 1848.
On January 2, 1929 Canada and the United States reached an agreement on an action plan to preserve the Falls.
There is a memorial of Nikola Tesla at Niagara Falls. Tesla was the first to harness the falls into electrical energy.
The Buffalo Niagara International Airport in Buffalo, New York was named after the waterfall.

Lake Ontario lies to the north and Lake Erie to the south.The area has a thriving tourist industry, thanks to the Niagara Escarpment and especially Niagara Falls. It is also a significant wine-growing area. Several battles were fought there in the War of 1812.

The Niagara River flows to the north from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario. It serves as the border between the province of Ontario in Canada and New York state in the United States.
The river is about 56 kilometres (35 miles) long and includes Niagara Falls along its course. The falls is thought to have moved upstream 11 kilometers (7 miles) in the last 12,000 years but modern diversion of the river for power generation has reduced the erosion to a minuscule amount. Power plants on the river are the Adam Beck Generating Station built in 1954, on the Canadian side, and the Robert Moses Niagara Power Plant, built in 1961, on the American side. The sites power 4.4 gigawatts of electrical generation. The river flow is also regulated by the International Control Works built in 1954. Shipping on the Great Lakes bypasses the Niagara River and Falls on the Welland Canal.
The total drop in elevation along the river is 99 meters (326 feet). The Upper Niagara Rapids drop 50 feet in a half mile before the Falls. The Niagara Gorge extends seven miles downstream of the Falls and includes the Niagara Whirlpool and another section of rapids.
The Niagara River features two large islands: Grand Island and Goat Island. The western end of the Erie Canal is near Grand Island. Goat Island spilts Niagara Falls into the American and Horseshoe Falls.
Three international bridges cross the river: the Peace Bridge at Buffalo, the Rainbow Bridge at Niagara Falls and the Niagara River Bridge between Lewiston and Queenston. Two bridges link Grand Island with both shores and the American Rapids Bridge links Goat Island to the American shore.
Cities on the Niagara River include:
Several battles occurred along the Niagara River which was historically defended by Fort George (Canadian side) and Fort Niagara (American side) at the mouth of the river and Fort Erie (Canadian side) at the head of the river. These forts were important in the French and Indian War and the American Revolutionary War. The Battle of Queenston Heights took place near the river in the War of 1812.
