Located in Erie County, Fairview, PA, is situated on the southern shore of Lake Erie and is one of the original 16 townships settled in 1797. The originality of this name was derived from the expletive of a businessman known as Colonel Thomas Forster. Before 1961, a local interchange and Interstate 90 were established in the township, and Fairview Township annexed Fairview municipality in 1998. Above anything else, this city is known for its proximity to some of the best freshwater sport fishing in the country.
