About Arlington
Tucked into the open prairie of eastern South Dakota, Arlington offers quiet small-town living with the perk of having larger hubs nearby. The community sits right along Highway 14 on the border of Brookings and Kingsbury counties, making it an easy 20-minute drive east to Brookings for work, shopping, or dining. Tree-lined residential streets, well-kept yards, and a steady agricultural backbone give the town a relaxed, welcoming feel from the moment you arrive.
Everyday life here revolves around a close-knit community and easy access to the outdoors. The local K-12 school system serves as a central gathering point for families, drawing big crowds for athletics and school concerts. When summer rolls around, Lake Poinsett is only a short drive north, giving locals a convenient spot for boating, fishing, camping, and weekend getaways. It is a peaceful place where neighbors look out for one another and open space is never in short supply.
