Our community is situated in an extensive cattle feeding area. In fact, Haskell County ranks first in the state for number of cattle on feed. The county also contains some of the finest irrigated farmland in the state. A diverse array of crops are raised in the area including wheat, corn, soybeans, milo, sunflowers, alfalfa, and cotton. Haskell County ranked second in the state in 2007 for total market value of agricultural products sold at a total of $718,219,000. Oil and natural gas production play a major role in the economy of the region. Just southwest of Satanta is what is known as the "longest bridge over a dry river" where US HWY 56 crosses the Cimarron river, which only flows on rare occasions.
In Satanta you will be met with friendly people who are dedicated to the community and its well-being. You'll find a thriving main street and a healthy business community. Not many small towns offer such up-to-date facilities, including a modern hospital, schools, swimming pool, bank, fire station and a new ambulance building.
The clean, smog-free air to be found in this section of the country, coupled with a low crime rate and very few of the problems found in urban settings, make Satanta a great place to live and raise children.
Along with many community events throughout the year, Satanta Day is held the second weekend in May each year. A display of our community's pride in our Native American heritage, the day-long celebration includes a parade, a barbeque, childrens' games, an all-school alumni reunion, and dances.
