The village's population was 297 at the 2006 Canadian Census. The village name is derived from the Cree phrase Meotate or Mo-Was-In-Ota, meaning "good place to camp" or "it is good here."[6][7]DemographicsIn 2006, Meota had a population of 297 living in 197 dwellings, a 1.4% increase from 2001. The village has a land area of {{convert|1.55|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}} and a population density of {{convert|191.9|/km2|/sqmi|abbr=on}}.[8] HistoryA post office named Meota was established in 1894, but it was located where the present-day community of Metinota is,[9] leading to some confusion over the origins of the current village of Meota. The first post office in present-day Meota was established in 1910, although it was initially called Beachview.[9] Joseph A. Dart, an early merchant, had established a store in a tent near current-day Meota, and in 1910, he moved to the Meota townsite where his store operated in a building on Main Street.[6] The Canadian Northern Railway opened its line through Meota in 1910-1911.[6][9] Soon after the arrival of the railway, Meota was incorporated as a village on February 1, 1911.[7] In 1912 the first grain elevator was constructed, and then a dance pavilion opened in 1921.[9] Other industries included brick manufacturing, a flour mill, and commercial fishing ("Meota Whites").[9] Unfortunately a series of fires have decimated the village's business district, and the advent of the automobile caused many local residents to drive to North Battleford for shopping. Meota has enjoyed a measure of prosperity due to summer vacationers at Jackfish Lake. See also
