Taylor County Airport (IATA: MDF, ICAO: KMDZ, FAA LID: MDZ) is a county-owned public-use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) southeast of the central business district of Medford, a city in Taylor County, Wisconsin, United States.

It is included in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2025–2029, in which it is categorized as a local general aviation facility. Although no commercial airlines service the airport, it does serve general aviation traffic including business and leisure fliers. Hangars are available for lease and fuel is also available.

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned MDZ by the FAA and MDF by the IATA (which assigned MDZ to El Plumerillo Airport in Mendoza, Argentina).
