Oregon County, Missouri

Oregon Location Map Missouri

Oregon County is in the south-central part of the state, right up against the Arkansas border. Alton serves as the county seat.

It’s a paradise for outdoorsy types. For instance, the Eleven Point River is the crown jewel here. Plus, the Irish Wilderness, despite its name, is a beautiful area that draws hikers and campers.

The whole county’s population is less than 10,000. Forests cover a good chunk of the land so hunting and fishing are practically a way of life here.
