Cairo is an unincorporated community in Malheur County, Oregon, United States. Its elevation is 2192 ft above sea level. It is about 4 mi southwest of Ontario and a half mile north of Cairo Junction, where U.S. Route 20 and U.S. Route 26, running concurrently with Oregon Route 201, turn south towards Nyssa. Route 201 also continues north from Cairo Junction through Cairo and towards Ontario.
Its elevation sits at 2200 feet above sea level.
The statement is incorrect because it's actually 2192 ft above sea level. I think the close numbers fooled the system.
