About Summerset

Tucked along Interstate 90 between Black Hawk and Piedmont, Summerset is a quiet, fast-growing community just minutes northwest of Rapid City. Incorporated in 2005, it is one of South Dakota's newest cities, offering a relaxed suburban feel right at the edge of the Black Hills. Most people move here for the scenic foothill views, newer homes, and an effortless commute into Rapid City for jobs, dining, and healthcare.

Since the community grew out of recent residential developments, neighborhood layouts feature paved subdivision loops, newer construction, and plenty of space to breathe. Depending on where you buy, kids attend schools in either the Meade County or Rapid City district. With hiking trails and the Black Hills National Forest practically in your backyard, Summerset gives you easy access to outdoor recreation while keeping everyday city conveniences close at hand.
