Saratoga is a town in Saratoga County, New York. The City of Saratoga Springs is directly west of the city. The Hudson River forms the town’s eastern boundary. The town is approximately forty miles north of Albany and considered part of the Capital District region of New York State. There are two villages in the town, Schuylerville and Victory. Schuylerville is the location of most town offices and businesses., the town population was estimated at 5,700.
The area now known as Saratoga was first settled in the late 17th century as Fort Saratoga. The Fort was best known for the Battles of Saratoga, which are often cited as the turning points for the United States during the American Revolutionary War. The town still has several historic sites and buildings frequented by visitors in the summer months.

Outside of the villages, the speed limit fluctuates between 55 and 40 miles per hour, depending on the surroundings.
