Buffalo is an unincorporated rural hamlet in Fergus County, Montana, United States. Buffalo has a church, a post office serving ZIP code 59418, no other businesses or services, and only perhaps half a dozen homes.[1] It was named for the buffalo which roamed this area.[2]
The post office was established in 1890.[3] It closed for several years until the Great Northern Railroad created a line to Billings with Buffalo as a station.
Buffalo is bordered by Lewis and Clark National Forest. It is located between the Little Belt Mountains and the Big Snowy Mountains.
The Köppen Climate System classifies the weather as humid continental, abbreviated as Dfb.[4]
