The population was 27 at the 2010 census, a loss of 3.6 percent from 28 at the 2000 census.[3] GeographyFallis is located at {{coord|35|44|58|N|97|7|18|W|type:city}} (35.749471, -97.121665).[4] Located in western Lincoln County, Fallis is situated on a paved county road five miles northwest of Wellston.[5][6] According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|0.3|sqmi|km2}}, all of it land. HistoryFallis was founded in 1892, just south of an Indian village on the western edge of the Iowa Reservation,[6] in a wooded area and "on a long red hill."[7] Originally named Mission 1892-1894, it was renamed in 1894 for its prime developer and first postmaster, Judge William Henry Fallis. Although the town is mostly abandoned today, and is nearly a ghost town, during the early 1900s Fallis was a whistle-stop for several railroad lines, and was a thriving little community with stores, hotels, banks, lumber yards, and other businesses, as well as a city hall. The population may have reached 400 during this time. Fallis was the home of several accomplished authors and poets.[6][7] After the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, and the decline of the railroad, by 1950 the population had fallen to just 105 residents,[6] and much of the town was destroyed by fire in 1960. Very little of the old town was ever rebuilt, and only a handful of buildings remain.[6][8] However, Fallis still maintains a volunteer firestation, and a community center was built in 1999.[6] Demographics{{US Census population|1910= 248 |1920= 239 |1930= 173 |1940= 137 |1950= 105 |1960= 42 |1970= 39 |1980= 22 |1990= 49 |2000= 28 |2010= 27 |estyear=2015 |estimate=27 |estref=[9] |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census[10] }} As of the census[1] of 2000, there were 28 people, 13 households, and 7 families residing in the town.
