Oxford is an unincorporated community in on the Southern Ute Indian Reservation in La Plata County, Colorado, United States.[1]
The townsite map was recorded November 3, 1909 by The Oxford Land and Townsite Co. alongside the Denver & Rio Grande RR by J.M. Denning. A post office called Oxford was established in 1908, and remained in operation until 1954.[2] The name Oxford was selected on account of its euphonic sound, according to local history.[3]
