Why LivCo?

Once you find us, you won’t find a reason to leave. Located just south of Rochester, New York, Livingston County offers an easy-going way of life with the convenience of city life just a few miles away. With nine bustling, retail-driven downtowns you can find your own community within each village. Home to Letchworth State Park, steps away from Stony Brook State Park, where Conesus + Hemlock Lakes await, and the Genesee River runs through, there are no shortages of outdoor discoveries in Livingston County. Originating in rural, agricultural history, there is nothing quite like a small town in Western, New York to remind you that life can be balanced.

The Livingston County Economic Development team seeks to find solutions for our community through experience, creativity, and care. From small business startup grants to business retention and expansion projects, we are experienced in supporting the wonderfully diverse wants and needs of Livingston County. Accordingly, we recognize that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach that will yield the partnerships necessary for continuous growth and opportunity. Consequently, we believe in collaborations that are unique for each community and have a recognized history of success in customizing our approach to fit what is needed.
