Where is West Hill?
The West Hill neighborhood starts on the west side of the Cayuga Lake inlet, and extends up the hill toward Mecklenberg. The neighborhood ends at the steep drop-off that runs parallel to Cliff Street/Route 96; to the north and the west, the neighborhood gives way to more open farm country. The West Hill neighborhood is close to the Inlet/Watefront neighborhood, and also the Southwest/Route 13 shopping area.
