About Akaska

Akaska is a town in Walworth County, South Dakota, United States. The 2020 census counted 77 residents. The community name derives from a Sioux word meaning "uncertain". Akaska was founded in 1907 as a station stop on a branch line of the Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway built that year between Conde and LeBeau, South Dakota. Akaska makes sense once you see how its past, landscape, and current gathering spots overlap. The useful thing to know about Akaska is that its older landmarks and current settings belong to one connected place. Railway service to Akaska ended in 1940.
