Otsego is located in southeastern Allegan County. It is supported by a diverse economy, including manufacturing of brass fittings and corrugating materials, just to mention a few. Its economy is also sustained by its proximity to the greater Kalamazoo area. The Kalamazoo River which flows lazily through the town adds to its picturesque setting. (It can be appreciated from the park on the east side of town along M-89).

The Otsego area was first settled in 1831 when Samuel Foster and family moved to the area. A year later, Horace H. Comstock moved here from Otsego, New York. He officially gave the town its name after successfully registering a post office and becoming its first postmaster in 1835. It was incorporated as a village in 1865and later reorganized as a city in 1918.
