Mina is an unincorporated community and a census-designated place (CDP) in Edmunds County, in the U.S. state of South Dakota. [2] The population of the CDP was 554 at the 2020 census. [4]
A post office called Mina was established in 1909, and remained in operation until 1983. [5] The community most likely was named after Mina Erling, the daughter of a railroad official. [6]
In 1999, a Learjet carrying PGA golfer Payne Stewart and five other people (including two pilots and three passengers) crashed in a field about a mile south of Mina. All were allegedly dead from a lack of oxygen long before the crash.[ citation needed]
