Cheyenne County KS

Welcome To

Cheyenne County

THE HEART OF NORTHWEST KANSAS

WE ARE A FRONTIER RURAL COMMUNITY

The county is home to two main cities: Bird City with 447 residents and St. Francis with 1,329 citizens.  The balance of the county’s population is located in rural country homes, farms, or ranches.

We have a proud agriculture-based heritage with producers of wheat, corn, beef, poultry, pork, and other commodities.  Western Kansas is home to some of the most beautiful prairie in the state of Kansas with sunsets and sunrises that, in our humble opinion, just can’t be beat.  The county is abundant with wildlife including deer, pheasants, turkeys, and quail.  Archers and hunters enjoy our landscapes during hunting seasons.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

General Election Information:
  • Under Kansas statute, the deadline to return your ballot is the close of the polls on Election Day. A district court in Douglas County entered a statewide injunction requiring ballots postmarked by election day to be counted if a ballot arrives by the last postal delivery on Friday after the election. The Kansas Court of Appeals rejected the Secretary of State’s appeal to stay the injunction. 
  • Regardless of the decision, voters are urged to return their ballots by the close of polls on Election Day. Doing so will ensure that their ballots will be counted.
