Hepburn Saskatchewan Information

Hepburn is a town in Saskatchewan, Canada, approximately 45 kilometres north of Saskatoon. _x000D_ Hepburn was settled in the early 20th century as a railroad station. Connection made the community grow overnight and many people moved to the area. Before the 1930s the population of Hepburn had reached over 800 people. In the 1930s, the area was affected by both the great depression and a huge drought affecting most of Western Canada. Many of Hepburn’s residents and farmers left the area. By the end of the decade, the population was less than 300. _x000D_ In the 1940s, the community sent over 60 men to serve in World War II. After the war, Hepburn started to grow, and new homes were built. In 1989, the province shut down the railroad line, stranding three grain elevators. Like most Saskatchewan grain elevators, two were torn down but one remained, being converted into a museum about the history of Hepburn and of Saskatchewan. _x000D_ In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Hepburn had a population of 784 living in 268 of its 276 total private dwellings, a change of 14% from its 2016 population of 688. With a land area of 1.14 km2 (0.44 sq mi), it had a population density of 687.7/km2 (1,781.2/sq mi) in 2021. _x000D_ Hepburn was home to a small Bible college called Bethany College which had a population of around 73 students before closing in May 2015. Hepburn is also home to Hepburn School (elementary and high school) which in 2001 celebrated its 75th anniversary. It is believed to be the oldest school in Saskatchewan continuously operating in its original building. _x000D_ 52°31?32?N 106°43?50?W? / ?52.52556°N 106.73056°W? / 52.52556; -106.73056 _x000D_ _x000D_ Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepburn,_Saskatchewan
