Victory is a village in Saratoga County, New York, United States. The population was 544 at the 2000 census. The village is located in the northeast part of the town of Saratoga, southwest of and bordering the village of Schuylerville. Victory is one of the smallest villages in New York.
The village was incorporated in 1849. The name Victory is most certainly due to the defeat of the British at the Battles of Saratoga, where Burgoyne surrendered his sword to Gates.
The village has also been called "Victory Mills" due to the large (now defunct) cotton mill of the Saratoga Victory Manufacturing Company. The company operated there from 1846 to 1929 and was centrally located on the primary road through town, Gates Avenue. The US Postal Service refers to the village's ZIP code as Victory Mills.
The Victory Mills building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 19, 2010.
Victory is located at 43°5′19″N 73°35′37″W / 43.08861°N 73.59361°W (43.088514, -73.593563).
