The Verdigris River runs the length of the county&#8217;s western side. Terrain rises gently toward the Ozark foothills in the northeast.<\/p>\n<p>Rogers County borders <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/nowata-county\/\">Nowata County<\/a> to the north, <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/craig-county\/\">Craig County<\/a> to the northeast, <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/mayes-county\/\">Mayes County<\/a> to the east, <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/wagoner-county\/\">Wagoner County<\/a> to the southeast, <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/tulsa-county\/\">Tulsa County<\/a> to the south and southwest, and <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/washington-county-oklahoma\/\">Washington County<\/a> to the west.<\/p>\n<h2>Demographics<\/h2>\n<p>Rogers County had 95,240 residents at the 2020 census, Oklahoma&#8217;s sixth-most populous county. Claremore is by far the largest community, followed by the Rogers County portions of Catoosa and Owasso. Median household income in the county runs above the Oklahoma median of $62,138, reflecting commuter households working in the Tulsa metro area. Population density is about 141 people per square mile of land.<\/p>\n<h2>Economy &amp; Local Life<\/h2>\n<p>Rogers County&#8217;s economy blends Tulsa-metro commuting with agriculture, energy, and tourism. Claremore is home to the Will Rogers Memorial Museum and the J.M. Davis Arms and Historical Museum, and hosts Rogers State University. Catoosa&#8217;s Blue Whale of Catoosa, a roadside attraction on old Route 66, draws travelers off the Will Rogers Turnpike. Cattle ranching and oil and gas production remain significant in the rural townships, and Oologah Lake supports recreational fishing and boating.<\/p>\n<h2>History<\/h2>\n<p>Rogers County was organized January 26, 1907, at Oklahoma statehood, from land that had been Cooweescoowee District of the Cherokee Nation. It was first named Cooweescoowee County before residents petitioned to rename it for Clement Vann Rogers, a Cherokee rancher, Confederate veteran, and delegate to the Oklahoma constitutional convention &mdash; and the father of humorist Will Rogers, who was born in the county near Oologah. Historic U.S. Route 66 crossed the county through Claremore and Foyil, and the alignment remains a heritage-tourism draw.<\/p>\n<h2>Getting There<\/h2>\n<p>Interstate 44 (the Will Rogers Turnpike) and U.S. Route 66 cross the county through Claremore and Catoosa; State Highway 88 and State Highway 20 serve the northern and eastern townships.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tulsa &mdash; 22 miles southwest<\/li>\n<li>Bartlesville &mdash; 25 miles northwest<\/li>\n<li>Muskogee &mdash; 35 miles south<\/li>\n<li>Pryor Creek &mdash; 15 miles east<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Tulsa International Airport, about 22 miles southwest of Claremore, is the nearest commercial airport.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Where is Rogers County?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt is in northeastern Oklahoma, in the Tulsa metropolitan area, centred near 36\u00b019\u2032N 95\u00b037\u2032W.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the population of Rogers County?<\/strong><br \/>\n95,240 at the 2020 census, Oklahoma&#8217;s sixth-most populous county.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How big is Rogers County?<\/strong><br \/>\n711 square miles (1,840 km2), of which 676 square miles is land and 36 square miles is water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the county seat of Rogers County?<\/strong><br \/>\nClaremore is the county seat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many towns are in Rogers County?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe county has 4 cities, 8 incorporated towns, and several census-designated and unincorporated places.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What ZIP codes are in Rogers County?<\/strong><br \/>\nMajor ZIP codes include 74017 (Claremore), 74015 (Catoosa), 74021 (Collinsville), 74055 (Owasso), and 74036 (Inola).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is Rogers County named Rogers?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt honors Clement Vann Rogers, a Cherokee rancher and statesman, and the father of entertainer Will Rogers, who was born near Oologah in the county.<\/p>\n<p>More counties in this state: <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/category\/oklahoma\/\">Towns and villages in Oklahoma<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rogers County is a county in Oklahoma, United States, in the Green Country region northeast of Tulsa.
