Ellis County, Oklahoma

The northwest corner of Oklahoma is home to Ellis County, next to Texas. Wide open spaces define this place. It’s cattle country. The land is rugged, beautiful in its own way.
Arnett is the county seat. Folks here work hard and play harder. They’re friendly to strangers but fiercely loyal to their own. The county has a rich history, dating back to the Land Run of 1893.
Winters can be harsh. Summers are scorching. But the people here are tough as nails. They’ve weathered droughts, tornadoes, and economic ups and downs. Ellis County isn’t flashy, but it’s real Oklahoma.
