Before that, the area had been traveled and utilized only by Native Americans, with a few indistinct traces left showing the penetration of the area by explorers, missionaries, trappers, and traders. Along with Sioux Falls and Flandreau, Medary was one of the first three European settlements established in South Dakota. </p><p>The first site of Medary was located by the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Dakota_Land_Company&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Dakota Land Company (page does not exist)">Dakota Land Company</a> of <a href="/wiki/Minnesota" title="Minnesota">Minnesota</a>, led by Alpheus G. Fuller and Franklin J. DeWitt and accompanied by engineer Samuel A. Medary, Jr. In 1857, the men put up quarters in preparation to live out the winter in Medary. Many other settlers moved into the area in 1858. But in the spring of that year, a large group of Yankton and Yanktonnia Indians drove the settlers from the area, and Medary remained nearly abandoned for the next 11 years. </p><p>In 1869, a group of 10 Norwegian pioneers moved west into the Dakota Territory and resettled the area of Medary, about four and a half miles south of present-day Brookings. The county of Brookings was formally organized in Medary in Martin Trygstad's cabin on July 3, 1871.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The county's original boundaries extended to two miles south of Flandreau. The territorial legislature established the current boundaries on January 8, 1873. Two other small settlements, Oakwood and Fountain, appeared in the Brookings County area around this time. All three hoped to be the town the railroad would decide to run through as it moved westward. The railroad bypassed Medary, so it became a ghost town. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Railroad">Railroad</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brookings,_South_Dakota&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Railroad"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In fact, the railroad bypassed all three towns. When the businessmen of Medary and Fountain found out that the railroad had no plans to run through the two towns, they began a push to find a central location. Many private meetings and much effort on the part of the men of Medary and Fountain led the railroad to lay its tracks through what became the city of Brookings. </p><p>In a letter sent to <a href="/wiki/Chicago" title="Chicago">Chicago</a> on September 30, 1879, Land Commissioner Charles E. Simmons communicated the layout of the series of towns in Brookings County for the railroad to pass through: Aurora, Brookings, and Volga. Many merchants of Medary and Fountain packed up their businesses and belongings and moved to Brookings, which was surveyed and platted on October 3 and 4, 1879. Fountain ceased to exist; Medary and Oakwood remained for a while but eventually faded away. A monument still stands at the site of the old Medary as a reminder of the people who once lived there. </p><p>The railroad crossed the Minnesota state line into Brookings County on October 2, 1879. With tracks being built at about one mile per day, the track and first train reached Brookings's Main Street on October 18, 1879. The railroad station opened a month later. </p><p>Brookings was laid out in 1880.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Employment">Employment</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brookings,_South_Dakota&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Employment"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>According to the City's 2021 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report,<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> its largest employers are: </p> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th># </th> <th>Employer </th> <th># of Employees </th></tr> <tr> <td>1 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/South_Dakota_State_University" title="South Dakota State University">South Dakota State University</a> </td> <td>3,973 </td></tr> <tr> <td>2 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Daktronics" title="Daktronics">Daktronics</a> </td> <td>1,329 </td></tr> <tr> <td>3 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/3M" title="3M">3M</a> </td> <td>1,156 </td></tr> <tr> <td>4 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Walmart" title="Walmart">Walmart</a> </td> <td>538 </td></tr> <tr> <td>5 </td> <td>Brookings Health System </td> <td>496 </td></tr> <tr> <td>6 </td> <td>Brookings School District </td> <td>492 </td></tr> <tr> <td>7 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Hy-Vee" title="Hy-Vee">Hy-Vee</a> Food Store </td> <td>450 </td></tr> <tr> <td>8 </td> <td><a href="/w/index.php?title=Larson_Manufacturing&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Larson Manufacturing (page does not exist)">Larson Manufacturing</a> </td> <td>448 </td></tr> <tr> <td>9 </td> <td>Aramark </td> <td>384 </td></tr> <tr> <td>10 </td> <td>Swiftel Center </td> <td>355 </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>Brookings's unemployment rate is 2.7%, well below the national average of 4.7%. </p><p>Bel Brands USA, Inc., a subsidiary of Paris-based multinational Fromageries BEL or <a href="/wiki/Bel_Group" title="Bel Group">Bel Group</a>, began commercial construction of a 170,000-square-foot <a href="/wiki/Babybel" title="Babybel">Babybel</a> cheese production plant in 2014 in the city's Foster Addition north of the Swiftel Center.
