Neighborhoods

Settlement in the Village of Oostburg [‡] began in 1840. The village was initially located to the east along Sauk Trail Road. In 1870, the first three houses were built in what would become the present community of Oostburg, west of the initial location. During 1872, the “East” prefix was added to the initial location when the present community of Oostburg began growing around the railroad depot.

The Village was incorporated in 1909. At that time the Village population was 380. Population grew to 671 in 1930 and reached 1,647 residents in 1980. Some of the early businesses in downtown were the Oostburg State Bank, Oostburg Canning Company, and Oostburg Steel Foundry.

Located in southeastern Sheboygan County on Interstate Highway 43, the Village is surrounded by the rural Towns of Holland, Lima, and Wilson. There are no major waterways within or adjacent to the Village, although Lake Michigan lies just under one mile to the east.
