Named Best U.S. College Town of 2024 by Midwestern Traveler Magazine, Oxford, Ohio blends a small-town atmosphere with the lively energy of Miami University.  About 7,000 residents call Oxford home year-round, and nearly 18,000 students return to the town each fall. In the Historic Uptown District, visitors can enjoy a walkable stretch of local shops and restaurants, while Hueston Woods State Park is just 15 minutes from town. Miami University has gardens and natural areas spread out across campus, along with over 17 miles of hiking trails to explore.  The campus is also home to an art museum, a sculpture park, and the Freedom Summer Memorial.  Learn more about Oxford at enjoyoxford.org.
