The rugged topography of southern Erie County is defined by the winding course of Cattaraugus Creek and the deep incisions of Gears Gulf and Gunbarrel Gulf. In the late 1950s, this landscape was a mosaic of rural crossroads and extensive managed timberlands, notably the State Reforestation Area blocks. The settlement pattern is anchored by family-named intersections like Matteson Corners, Johnstons Corners, and Shepards Corners, reflecting the agricultural heritage of the town of Sardinia.
