About Chokio

Sitting along Highway 28 in western Minnesota's Stevens County, Chokio gets its name from a Dakota word meaning "the middle," fitting for a quiet town that started as a halfway stop between Morris and Graceville. With around 400 residents, it offers a peaceful, close-knit rural setting rooted in deep farming traditions. Life here moves at an easy pace, centered around local schools, grain elevators, and a classic small-town Main Street where neighbors still know each other by name.
