We largely built the following list with information that came from an Atlas published by Rand McNally in 1895. The Atlas had details such as the population of the community (which appears to have come from the 1890 Census) and whether there was a post office and/or railroad service available. Over time, we will continue to add communities that we find during our research.
If it applies, we indicate whether a community no longer exists and is now historic.<1>
The Rand McNally Atlas shows that Grass Range had a population of 21 people in 1895 with a post office and no railroad service. In 2020, Grass Range had a population of 105 people.
The following communities are listed based on their distance from Grass Range, with the one closest to Grass Range listed first.
Fort Maginnis ‑ Historic (19 miles [30.6 km] to the northwest)
Note: The GPS coordinates that we are using for Fort Maginnis came from an uncertain source and they still need to be verified:<2>
We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Grass Range, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.

If we found a location and have questions about the accuracy of our information, we will simply say that the marker is 'in the vicinity'. We are not confident about the location and the position of our marker is only a rough guide. If we have too many doubts about the location, we will not include it in our database.
