Welcome to the Town of Richland's official municipal website. The Town of Richland is unique as it is bordered by Lake Ontario's eastern shore and is located in Oswego County, NY in the heart of the Salmon River corridor. Located in the Town of Richland are the hamlets of Richland, Fernwood and Port Ontario. The Town of Richland has much to offer from white sand beaches and state parks, four seasons of recreation and year-round sport fishing. The pride of Richland is the state of the art water system that provides award winning water quality, serving Richland and neighboring towns. The economy is well-rounded, including everything from manufacturing to health services.  The town has a rich history dating back to 1801, when it was first settled. One visit will prove that Richland consists of a close knit family-oriented community that takes pride in its town and the people who reside in it.
