Choosing Yukon as Your Home
Like most cities in Oklahoma, this town is full of a rich and celebrated history. Yukon originally thrived as the urban center for farmers. A small milling operation, the Yukon Mill and Grain Company, opened in 1893 and grew to shipping flour and feeds throughout the south and exporting them overseas by 1915. The mills were sold to larger corporations; Shawnee Mills purchased the Yukon Mill and Grain Company and Mid-Continent purchased the Dobry Mills. Paying homage to that history, the students of Yukon High School are known as "Millers", and their mascot is "The Miller Man”.
Having perfect access to Route 66 proves to be a great benefit for those that who travel to and from Oklahoma City or throughout the US for work. Whenever Oklahoma faces an oil bust, some flee the city and move into Yukon which continues to provide the needs for the city to continue to sprawl outwards.
