There are 5 states that border the Lake Erie in United States of America namely Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York in the south and Michigan in the west. Canada too forms one of Lake Eries borders.
The name of the lake is originated from the tribe Erie who were Native Americans and lived along the southern shore before the advent of the Europeans.
The water of the lake has myriad of fish species, and it is one of the most popular sites for fishing. However, since the rise in the pollution level, the debate is continued that to what extent it can be used for commercial fishing. Also the environment is quite favourable for agriculture around the bordering areas near Ontario, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York.
