Mexico

Location: Mexico is in the northeastern section of Oswego County, New York. The Little Salmon River runs through the area, linking it to Lake Ontario.

Population: As of the 2020 census, the town of Mexico had a population of 5,257.

History: Mexico is known as the "Mother of Towns" because the original town, established by acts in the late 1700s, was an expansive area from which over 80 other towns were eventually formed across several counties. The origin of its unique name is a mystery, with the best guess being that an early land surveyor had an affinity for the nation of Mexico. The area played a role in the abolition of slavery and was a stop on the Underground Railroad, notably the Starr Clark Tin Shop.
