Keremeos (/kɛrəˈməs/) is a village in the Southern Interior of British Columbia, Canada.[3] The name originated from the Similkameen dialect of the Okanagan language word "Keremeyeus" meaning "creek which cuts its way through the flats" referring to Keremeos Creek which flows down from the Upper Benchlands to the Similkameen River that flows past the village.[4]
