Tenney

Few communities in western Minnesota have a history as closely tied to railroad expansion as Tenney. Platted in 1885 as rail tracks reached Traverse County, it was named for railroad official A. A. Tenney and incorporated in 1901. Near the South Dakota border, the town sits in the broad Red River Valley, where level former-lakebed terrain has long supported grain farming. The 2020 census recorded five residents, giving this incorporated city an exceptionally small scale.
