Klamath Falls, OR Real Estate

Klamath Falls, is a city in Klamath County, Oregon, United States. Originally called Linkville when George Nurse founded the town in 1867, after the Link River on whose falls this city sits. The name was changed to Klamath Falls circa 1892, and is sometimes called K Falls. The population was 19,462 at the 2000 census, although the city limit signs on the edges of town list it as near 40,000, counting suburbs (primarily the community of Altamont ). It is the county seat of Klamath County GR6.

The Klamath Indians were the first inhabitants of the area. Their name for this place was Yulalona or Iwauna, which referred to the fact the Link River would flow upstream when the south wind blew hard. Their name for the falls was Tiwishkeni, or "where the falling waters rush".

The Modoc Tribe's homeland is about 20 miles south of Klamath Falls, and the war of 1872 - 1873 was a hugely expensive campaign for the US Calvary, costing an estimated $500,000 the equivalent over 8 Billion in yr 2000 dollars. 17 indians and 83 whites were killed. [1]
