The City of Scobey is the largest city and County Seat in Daniels County with a population of 1082 in an area consisting of one square mile. We are a small town with large town facilities, a progressive mind, and an awesome sense of community. Scobey, referred to as "The Center of the Universe" is known by many because, outside of wheat, our largest export has been people. However, we would like people to become our largest import.

Scobey is home to a newly expanded and renovated school complex which offers two gymnasiums, a walking/running track, and weight room facilities; a newly renovated hospital and nursing home including a physical therapy center with hydrotherapy pool; a full service airport; an authentic historic town with 35 restored buildings; a 9-hole golf course and clubhouse; municipal pools and ball parks; a trapshooting club; a locally owned radio station and weekly newspaper; a movie theater; two grocery stores; a large telephone cooperative;  several other retail businesses, professional offices, and industrial complexes; and other services too numerous to mention.

Scobey is around 2400 feet above sea level with a climate consisting of four distinct seasons. Summer temperatures normally range between 83 and 48 degrees Fahrenheit averaging 66 degrees. Winter temperatures range between 24 above and 3 degrees below zero Fahrenheit with an annual average snowfall of 18.7 inches. Annual precipitation average is 13.23 inches.

Located just fourteen miles south of the Canadian Border, we are within a two 1/2 hour drive to Regina, Saskatchewan, the provincial capitol. Regina is a large metropolitan area with a culturally diverse population offering many amenities such as a professional football team, a symphony, science center, museums, and shopping.
