Ovid is a village in Seneca County, New York, United States.

Ovid and the surrounding area was part the lands controlled by the Iroquois.

The Sullivan Expedition of 1779 drove away or killed many of these natives to reduce their raiding in support of the British.

After the American Revolution the village was in the Central New York Military Tract, used to compensate soldiers.

The David and Mary Kinne Farmstead, Seneca County Courthouse Complex at Ovid, Edith B. Ford Memorial Library and Aaron Wilson House are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
