'Oswego' (IPA: ) is a village in Valley County, Montana, United States. It is located along U.S. Route 2 between the cities of Frazer and Wolf Point.
Settled sometime in the 1890s, the village was named after Oswego, New York, the hometown of some early-day settlers.[1] A post office was located there from 1896 until 1971.
