About Parkston

Parkston offers a quiet, neighborly pace of life in the farm country of southeastern South Dakota. It is the kind of community where kids can walk to school, with classes from kindergarten through high school all on one central campus. A classic Main Street sits at the center of town, while surrounding farmland gives residents plenty of room to breathe. When you need bigger amenities, Mitchell is an easy 20-mile drive straight up Highway 37 for major shopping, dining, and healthcare, making Parkston a practical and welcoming choice for anyone seeking small-town living.
