Warwick is a town in the southwestern part of Orange County, New York, United States.

The town contains three villages (Florida, Greenwood Lake, and Warwick) and eight hamlets (Amity, Bellvale, Edenville, Little York, Wisner, New Milford, Pine Island, and Sterling Forest).

[5] During the American War for Independence, Warwick was the site of a Continental Army encampment.

In 1783, George Washington traveled through Warwick, stopping at Baird's Tavern and spending the night in the home of John Hathorn.

Warwick is situated along a freight rail line, which, as it did with many other towns in Orange County (such as Goshen, Middletown, and Newburgh), contributed to the growth of the area.

The nineteenth-century writer and naturalist Henry William Herbert, writing as Frank Forrester, popularized the area with his 1845 book, "The Warwick Woodlands".

[6] Today, the town of Warwick is a rural community with many agricultural pursuits that stimulate its economy.

[citation needed] The town of Warwick comprises much of the southern tip of Orange County.

Glenmere Lake, an extremely critical endangered species habitat, is bisected by Warwick and Chester.
