Hamilton County, County in southwest Kansas, United States.
Hamilton County encompasses 998 square miles of land where agriculture dominates the landscape with extensive wheat fields and commercial livestock operations.
The county, established in 1873 and named after Alexander Hamilton, developed along the Santa Fe Trail with Fort Aubry serving as a stagecoach station.
Rural communities of Syracuse, Coolidge, and Kendall maintain traditional agricultural practices through multiple generations of farming families in the region.
The county connects to major transportation routes through U.S. Highway 50 and U.S. Highway 400, facilitating movement between Colorado and central Kansas.
Hamilton County maintains its status as a dry county despite Kansas state law changes, preserving regulations that prohibit alcohol sales by individual drink.
