I’ve been looking at the area from Rapid City up to Spearfish. I’ve been told that Sturgis is a good city to check out too.
I have a nephew who grew up in Tennessee.
He and his family moved to the Rapid City area a few years ago, and they love it.
How about Custer? Its touristy but if you want some sort of part time job, there is probably a lot to do there.
