The population of Little Falls New York was 4,946 at the 2010 census.
The City of Little Falls New York is located at the southeastern corner of the Town of Little Falls in Herkimer County.
Little Falls has a picturesque location on the slope of a narrow and rocky defile, flowing through which the river falls 45 feet (13 m) in less than a mile (1.6 km), forming a number of cascades.
Little Falls was first settled around 1723. The need to portage around the falls promoted a trading location on the site of the future city, allowing it to be the first settlement in the town. Many of the earliest residents were German Palatines. The small settlement here was destroyed by the Indians and Tories in June, 1782, and the place was not resettled until 1790 and was known at times as “Rockton” and “Rock City.” Little Falls was incorporated as a village in 1811, and reincorporated in 1827. The City of Little Falls was chartered in 1895.
Today Little Falls is a mixture of small town NY and artist and antiques center. Some great shops and places to eat and more. Nice to take a walk up and down main street to see it all.- Information from Wikipedia
