Owego, Administrative division in Tioga County, New York, United States

The Susquehanna River divides Owego into two distinct sections while Owego Creek merges with the river at the central village location point.

The settlement began in 1786, and the town officially formed in 1800 as Tioga before changing its name to Owego in 1813 to prevent location confusion.

The name originates from the Iroquois word Ahwaga, reflecting the geographic characteristic of the expanding valley in this specific region.

The Southern Tier Expressway and New York State Routes 17C, 38, and 96 intersect near the village, providing multiple transportation connections.

The town encompasses 105.8 square miles, including 1.6 square miles of water bodies, with several distinct communities such as Apalachin and Campville.

GPS coordinates: 42.10345,-76.26227
