Liverpool is a lakeside village in Onondaga County, New York, United States.

[3] The village is on Onondaga Lake, in the western part of the town of Salina and is northwest of Syracuse, of which it is a suburb.

In the mid-17th century, Canadian French Jesuits visited the area, setting up missions.

The Lucius Gleason House and Liverpool Cemetery are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Liverpool played an important role in the salt industry on the shores of Onondaga Lake.

The New York State surveyor general laid out the streets in the village, changed its name from "Little Ireland" to "Liverpool", and had it incorporated on April 20, 1830.

[6] It was renamed after the city of Liverpool in England, most likely because it also produced salt and village leaders wanted to use the name recognition of another famous salt-producing region; coincidentally, 15 years later, the Great Famine caused so many people to sail from Ireland to England for a new life in Liverpool that the city gained the nickname "Little Ireland" and its demographic makeup remains the most overwhelmingly Irish of any community in the United Kingdom.

[citation needed] According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has an area of 0.8 square miles (2.1 km2), all land.

The New York State Thruway (Interstate 90) passes through the northern part of the village.

[9] The park is home to the Salt Museum and the East Shore Recreation Trail.
