Oregon County is a county in far southern Missouri, within the Ozark Mountains. It had a population of 10,881 at the 2010 census.
Officially organized on February 14, 1845, the county was named for the then-disputed American territory of Oregon, and is one of only three Missouri counties to share a name with another U.S. state (the others being Texas and Mississippi). Alton is the county seat, and Thayer is the largest city.
