York is a small town in the western part of the West African country of Sierra Leone, about 30 kilometers north of the capital Freetown, in the Western Area.

Although less prosperous than Freetown, York has retained some of its traditional Sierra Leonean culture, with a predominantly Creole (Krio) population, and English and Creole as the predominant languages. The area is well connected to the capital by road and is one of the gateways to exploring the rural and coastal landscapes of western Sierra Leone.
