The United States of America is a country in North America that extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean and shares land borders with Canada and Mexico. The United States is a federal constitutional republic, with its capital in Washington, D.C., District of Columbia.
 
Brookings is a city in Curry County, Oregon, United States. It was named after John E. Brookings, president of the Brookings Lumber and Box Company, which founded the city in 1908. The population was 5,447 at the 2000 census. As of 2005, Brookings had a population of over 6,000 within the city limits. The total population of the Brookings area is over 13,000, which includes Harbor and others. There have been numerous attempts to annex the nearby unincorporated areas into Brookings while most attempts failed over the years, one large area north of town owned by Borax has succeeded. This development has the potential to add approximately 1000 homes over the next 20 years, although developers expect many of them to be occupied only seasonally.
 
While John E. Brookings was responsible for the founding of Brookings as a company town, it was his cousin Robert S. Brookings, who was responsible for its actual design. The latter Brookings hired Bernard Maybeck, an architect based in San Francisco who was later involved in the Panama-Pacific Exposition to lay out the plat of the townsite.

In the city the population was spread out with 23.8 percent under the age of 18, 5.7 percent from 18 to 24, 23.1 percent from 25 to 44, 23.5 percent from 45 to 64, and 23.9 percent who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 43 years. For every 100 females there were 90.3 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 86.3 males. Brooking is the kind of city one daydream about. It is a city with endless recreational opportunities, rich history, and modern day luxuries.
