π¦ Siskiyou County
~44,000 peopleSiskiyou County stretches from the Oregon border to Mount Shasta. It's ranching and timber country, with strong ties to the Karuk Tribe and the Klamath River. The county has struggled since mill closures, and ranchers face drought, pests, and wildfire. Yreka, the county seat, anchors communities that feel forgotten by Sacramento and Washington. These are self-reliant people who want opportunity, not handouts.
