About this map

The Cohocton River valley serves as the primary corridor for development and transport through Steuben County in the late 1960s. The Erie-Lackawanna railroad tracks and multiple highway routes parallel the river, connecting the settlements of Campbell, Curtis, and Coopers Plains. This transportation-heavy valley is flanked by significant elevation changes, notably at Rising Hill and Wood Hill, where the land rises sharply from the riverbank into deeply incised drainages like Curtis Hollow and Frog Hollow Creek.

Civic life is anchored by local institutions such as Central Sch and several well-established burial grounds, including Hope Cem and Riverside Cem. To the south, the landscape transitions from agricultural valley floors to the protected lands of the State Game Management Area and Beartown Forest. Resource extraction is evident near the river through several Gravel Pits, while newer social spaces like Nellie Ames Memorial Park and the County Technical Sch point toward mid-century community expansion.
