Built around the functions of a county seat, Oshkosh grew into the small administrative and service centre it is today in western Nebraska. The town lies in the Nebraska Panhandle, amid High Plains country and the western reaches of the Nebraska Sandhills, a vast region of grass-covered dunes. Garden County’s courthouse anchors the civic centre, while local life is closely connected to ranching and travel across this sparsely settled part of the state. Within the county, Crescent Lake National Wildlife Refuge protects sandhills lakes, marshes and grasslands, adding an important wetland environment to the region.
