HistoryScooba is a Choctaw word meaning "reed brake", and the early settlement was noted for its productive farmland.[3] A line of the Gulf, Mobile and Ohio Railroad passed through Scooba. A Democratic weekly newspaper, The Kemper Herald, was established in Scooba in 1876. By the early 1900s, Scooba had several residential homes, a hotel, a livery barn, a post office, two saw milling plants, a cotton gin, a general store, five churches (three white and two colored), a school, and a bank (the Bank of Kemper, established in 1904). Scooba was a local market for cotton.[3] In late December 1906, Scooba and Wahalak, Mississippi, were the sites of white rioting against blacks. In the various conflicts, which started with confrontations between passengers and conductors on the railroad, a total of 12 blacks and two whites were killed by December 26. The county sheriff called in the state militia for assistance. The events were covered by national newspapers.[4] GeographyAccording to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|2.5|sqmi|km2}}, all land. Scooba is adjacent to U.S. Route 45, Mississippi Highway 16, and a railroad. It is {{convert|35|mi|km}} north of Meridian and {{convert|50|mi|km}} south of Columbus.[5] Demographics{{US Census population|align=left |1900= 286 |1910= 322 |1920= 700 |1930= 933 |1940= 606 |1950= 734 |1960= 513 |1970= 626 |1980= 511 |1990= 541 |2000= 632 |2010= 732 |estyear=2017 |estimate=694 |estref=[6] |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census[7] }} As of the census[8] of 2000, there were 632 people, 204 households, and 139 families residing in the town.
