Saginaw is a small place in Lane County, Oregon, in the United States. It's called an unincorporated community, which means it's not officially a city or town with its own local government. For a while, Saginaw had its own post office with a special ZIP code, 97472. This post office closed when the store it was in shut down.
Saginaw is easy to find because it's located where Oregon Route 99 and Saginaw Road meet. It's also very close to Interstate 5, just west of the Saginaw exit. If you look on a map, Saginaw is to the northeast of Cottage Grove.
