Looking at those early Censuses, I now have a new appreciation for the phrase "Boomer Sooner." Note that 1890 only includes Oklahoma Territory, which was the western half of the state; Indian Territory first is recorded in 1900. The next state may be West Virginia, Connecticut, or Kansas.

Oh man. Thanks for this one, have been waiting for it. Lived a lot of places, but grew up in Oklahoma. Thought I could roll through it, but I'll be if the 327 in 1890 didn't completely get me and the 3351 in 1900 stumped me too! Despite me disappointing my Oklahoma History teachers, fantastic quiz! Fantastic!

Should also be worth pointing out that the 1980 to 1990 drop reflected in Tulsa was the Oil Boom busting. OKC largely avoided the statistical drop because they annexed boatloads, but were hit just as hard as Tulsa (although a Tulsan might disagree).

The 327 place in 1890 is today a ghost town, not far from the current town of Yukon: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ok/canadian/history/frisco1.txt
