According to the 2011 UK Census, Etton parish had a population of 277, a decrease on the 2001 UK Census figure of 285. The name Etton derives from the Old English Eatatūn meaning 'Eata's settlement'.

The patron of the village Church of St Mary was the Archbishop of York. Etton has been known to suffer quite badly during floods, due to its position in a small valley, with the most recent flood on 25 June 2007.
