About Fairfax

Fairfax is a small, quiet community of about 1,100 people in Osage County, within the Osage Nation reservation. First established during the railroad and oil booms of the early 1900s, the town holds a unique place in Oklahoma history as the childhood home of legendary Native American ballerinas Maria and Marjorie Tallchief. Today, Fairfax offers a relaxed, rural lifestyle surrounded by open pastureland and rolling hills, with plenty of outdoor recreation nearby along the Arkansas River. It is an appealing spot for anyone looking for historic character, peace, and friendly neighbors.
