Parish lies in east-central Oswego County on the lake plain transitioning into the Tug Hill foothills. Soils across the village and the Route 69 / I-81 interchange area are dominated by Scriba fine sandy loam and Ira fine sandy loam on the uplands, with Worth and Empeyville channery silt loams on the rising ground toward Tug Hill and Greenwood mucky peat in the extensive wetland swales.
Drainage flows generally westward through tributaries to the Salmon River and south through tributaries to Oneida Lake, with the continental divide between Great Lakes and Atlantic drainage running close to the town's eastern boundary. Commercial site work in Parish regularly involves managing seasonal high water tables, dealing with hardpan restrictions in the fine sandy loams, and stormwater design that accounts for extremely high annual precipitation on the Tug Hill side. Shallow sandstone bedrock can appear on the rising ground to the east. Frost depth and snowmelt volumes both push pavement, utility, and culvert detail on any commercial project here.
