Calumet, Oklahoma
Calumet is a town in Canadian County, Oklahoma, United States. It is part of the Oklahoma City Metropolitan Area. The population was 507 at the 2010 census, a 5.23 percent decrease since 2000.
Calumet is a variant term for Ceremonial pipe. Incorporated in 1942, the town's land was settled in the Land Run of 1892.
Calumet incorporated in 1942 in order to construct a town water system. Prior to its incorporation, the town existed as an unincorporated community with a post office, three combination mills and elevators, two general stores, a furniture store, and a hardware store.
The town lies in an area that in 1803 was part of the Louisiana Purchase. After the Organic Act of 1890 recreated the area as Oklahoma Territory, present-day Canadian County was designated as County Four and settled by non-Indian settlers through the Land Run of 1889, the Land Run of 1892, and a 1901 land lottery. The Land Run of 1892 opened up the surplus Cheyenne-Arapaho lands to non-Indian settlement, which opened up Calumet.
Calumet is located on US Route 270 in northwestern Canadian County, 11 miles northwest of El Reno and 11 miles east of Geary and 1.5 miles south of the North Canadian River. It is on the border of the Red Bed Plains and Gypsum Hills ecoregions of Oklahoma.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total land area of 1.3 square miles (3.4 km2), all land.
As of the 2010 United States census, there were 507 people, 187 households, and 130 families residing in the town. The population density was 390 inhabitants per square mile (150/km2). There were 214 housing units at an average density of 164.6 per square mile (63.6/km2). The racial makeup of the town was 78.9% white, 13.6% Native American, 0.4% Asian, 2.4% from other races, and 4.7% from two or more races. Hispanics or Latinos were 4% of the population.
There were 187 households, out of which 40.6% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 69.5% were married couples living together, 9.6% had a female householder with no husband present, and 30.5% were non-families. Less than a third of households (28.9%) were made up of individuals, and 13.4% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.71 and the average family size was 3.28.
