Conneaut Lake Шаблон:IPAc-en is a borough in Crawford County, Pennsylvania, located at the southern end of the lake of the same name. The population was 625 at the 2020 census,[1] down from 653 at the 2010 census.[2]
History
The town was founded in 1799 as "Evansburg", named for local farmer Abner Evans, who had opened a successful mill, of which several more followed. The town’s population would continue to grow as soon it would be connected to other towns by a canal and later by railroad.
By the 1880’s the town’s economy boomed with the foundation of several important businesses, most notably, the famous tool company Channellock and The Conneaut Lake Ice Company (which was a major supplier of fresh ice for cities and towns around the northeast).
As locals around the area were colloquially referring to the town as the name of the neighboring lake, the town was officially renamed Conneaut in 1892. The same year the famous local park was also opened, and the town became become a major tourist destination in western Pennsylvania.
In 1907 trolley lines were installed that connected the town and park with several other local towns, but by the 1920s these were mostly removed due to the automobile rendering it obsolete.
By the 1930’s the rise of refrigeration meant that most towns no longer needed fresh ice to preserve food, and thus saw the closure of the town’s Ice Company. This along and the closure/moving of other companies caused town’s local population to decline (although the population rose once again in the mid 20th century). Today the town serves mainly as a resourt town, home to many shops, restaurants and other amenities.[4]
