City DescriptionLeoti is a city in Wichita County, Kansas, United States. The population was 1,598 at the 2000 census. It is the county seat of Wichita County. The correct pronunciation is "Lee-OH-tuh."
Leoti was founded in 1885 by a company of men from Garden City, Kansas. Only 2 years later, in 1887, it was involved in the bloodiest county seat fight in the history of the American West. The shoot-out was on February 27, 1887, when men—some would say hired gunmen—from Leoti, went to the neighbor and rival town of Coronado and left several people dead and wounded. A small town called Farmer City which was located between Coronado and Leoti, was hoped by some to become the county seat--which would end the fighting. Leoti later won the right to become the county seat and now the two other towns consist mainly of farmland.
Leoti is located at 38°29′3″N 101°21′28″W / 38.48417, -101.35778 (38.484073, -101.357639).
