Custer County, County in southeastern Montana, United States.
Custer County spans 3,793 square miles of land with Miles City as its county seat and contains multiple unincorporated communities including Ismay and Volborg.
The territory was established in 1865 as Big Horn County and received its current name in 1877 to honor Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer.
