I †SD especially Spearfish. My dad was stationed at Ellsworth AFB a few years ago and as an air force brat I had the pleasure of being able to explore spearfish and the neighboring communities! â€
Iâd love to be able to live there again one day †đĄ
I don't know that I've heard anyone say they don't like Spearfish. đ Such a beautiful town!
The rec center and water park are amazing - the water park has a variety of cool features that are fun for kids and adults of all ages
Whenever I drive by there in the summer when it's in full swing I think "that looks like fun - we should go there sometime..." haha!
Thank you for doing this drive around. It's really informative and helpful. Also, seeing how the weather and roads are in Jan helps a lot! Winter is definitely the scariest turn-off for moving there. To see some of it helps.
Thanks for watching! Every year is a bit different...but winter never fails to bring us some fun! The most important thing is good tires for your car. đ
Conservative communities are always nicer places to live. None of these towns in and around the Black Hills area ever look neglected or run down. Everythingâs well managed and kept up. The tourism industry keeps things thriving.
We've certainly been lucky up here. Usually the economy remains pretty stable - and I've heard that from multiple out of towners...how clean everything is here.
Agree
What an amazing video! I love Spearfish. I visit yearly, sometimes more than once! Iâd love to call it home somedayâŠ.
Thanks for posting!
Thanks for watching! Spearfish is a beautiful town, for sure. â€ïž I'm here if your dreams are ready to become reality!
@@TristanEmond Much appreciated!!
One nice thing about the Black Hills is itâs distance east of the major mountain ranges. Itâs an isolated forested area and the land management is good. Unlike Montana where wild fires run rampant because of poor or no land management.
We've had our share of fires in really dry years, but you're right for the most part it isn't as bad as other places. It isn't something you expect every year. đ€·ââ
Short sleave shirt with snow on the ground, Tristan? You are a thick blooded local!!!
After a week of sub zero, 30 and sun feels like spring! đ€Ł
Tristin, I have a video suggestion for you, how about making a video about the 10 best places to stay in the Black Hills if you want to really wow someone to help make them consider moving to the Black Hills. Example: BackRoads Inn & Cabins or Spearfish Canyon Lodge
Thank you so much for your suggestion! I'm always looking for new video ideas đĄ.
@Tea Monkey I've got it on the list. Hopefully I can get something together before May.
My impression is properties out there must be very expensive because so many who live out there look wealthy. That is, unless they come from generations of family who lived there forever.
Spearfish is probably the best place to live in the US for a family IMO.
I know you love it there! Glad you have made it your home.
Thanks for the video, it was very helpful. Spearfish is near the top of my list for retirement destinations. I must say I was a little surprised at how high the real estate prices are though. I guess itâs the view people are paying for. How is Spearfish for new comers to the area? No, I donât want to change anything about your city, or tell you âhow we did things back home.â If it was so great where I live now I wouldnât be moving. I just want a beautiful place to live with hopefully some friendly folks to enjoy the time Iâve got left. I really enjoy hiking, off roading, car racing, and shooting guns. Iâm hoping there might be some good gun clubs in the area? I plan to take a trip there this spring to look around. Any other towns in the Black Hills that I should consider? How is Belle Fourche? Looks to be much smaller than Spearfish, but a little less expensive. Thanks!
Spearfish is the epitome of supply and demand 101 - lots of demand (it's a really pretty area) with little supply means high prices. There have been many new comers the past couple of years. Many people are used to it, some are still having issues with it. I've heard from other clients that as long as you let it be known really quick you wouldn't change a thing, the suspicion goes away. If you watch the videos of clients moving to the area, they all say the same thing...people are friendly. Belle is a nice little town - I'll have a video up of that later. You'll have no problems finding some gun clubs :). I always recommend a visit to get a feel for things! Other places would be Whitewoood, Sturgis, the Piedmont area, even down to Hermosa. Every town has it's own feel and character, so that's why the visit is important. When you do, hit me up and we'll meet up for coffee or something!!
Was just out there from Minneapolis. The price of groceries is outrageous compared to the Twin Cities.
Yeah we got less competition out here plus I assume costs more to ship it out here. Price of fuel ain't been cheap! :)
Good overview of spearfish. Thanks. Hot Springs?
Thank you! Hot Springs is on the list! đ
So gorgeous!
Imagine what it's like in the summer. Oh and the fall!
@@TristanEmond I've been there in the summer...Amazing! In fact I'll be out there next summer!!!
@@cspjkd nice!! We should meet up when you are here.

Arent the blackhills known for it paranormal activity?
If so, have you experienced anything paranormal?
There are some haunted places in Deadwood and the hotel Alex Johnson in Rapid has a haunted floor. Other than that, I haven't heard of too much other paranormal stuff. I usually feel really at peace and harmony w nature in the Hills.
Hello. Enjoying your videos. My mother (91) and I (68) and an older dog are planning to move to the SD area from Hot Springs to Spearfish. Rapid City is looking good.
Just doing my research and wondering which town you would recommend for seniors to rent. Both on SS.
I prefer to stay where there is the least amount of snow and a hospital and shopping close by. We are fine with a mobile home park if there are any. Townhome, condo. As long as a German Shepherd is OK
Any advice? Are there local classified ads instead of just Zillow and Craigslist?
Hey thanks for your comment! So Hot Springs statistically gets the least amount of snow - but anything outside of the Hills isn't bad. The main hospital (monument) is in Rapid City, but they have satellite hospitals in throughout the Hills. Most places will have your basic groceries, hardware, etc.
Renting with a pet can be difficult. Not every place allows for pets. I don't handle rentals directly, but I have a page with links to get you started:
www.rapidhomesonline.com/rapid-city-rentals
There are a couple classified ads links in there that should help. Also check out FB marketplace.
Best advice is to call around, ask questions, be persistent. Good luck!
Thank you so much. I am really looking forward to getting there. Even though we are old I feel like we can manage navigating a new place. Thank you for the very helpful links.@@TristanEmond
One questionI never asked anyone out there is why more pine trees arenât planted on the opposite side of I 90 to the hills? Noticed very few pine trees growing in Spearfish.
It gets to be prairie REALLY quick! haha Planting trees was probably just more of a hassle than it was worth. Especially with the wind we get thru here.
so after doing some research I noticed they have a couple of nice disc golf courses, I am trying to find out what size all the City Parks are for kids to play??
There is a really cool park next to a stream with plenty of space, lots of stuff to do. Right next to the historic DC Booth Fish Hatchery which is worth the visit.
Wind? (I'm from Wyoming, lol.)
Well...yep we got that. Spearfish is a bit more protected due to how it's tucked in there, but wind is part of it. đ€Ł
đ I lived there for 5 years...Good lord
Time flies when you ain't thinking about it. haha!
Its a small town nÔthkng there
Which is exactly why some people love it there.
But in spearfish mostly everyone hates you no matter what
Oof I'm sorry to hear that. đ
500-600K at 7%, in Spearfish, SD? Uh, nope.
Right? Even at 5% that's a bit spendy for many people.
There is a terribly high cost of living there, and the People are RUDE! Lots of Californians and Colorado folks telling you what to do!
I know it ain't cheap - sorry to hear about rude people... đ
Spearfish, is the Pearl of the Black Hills â€â€
Such a pretty city!
Why is this place so expensive?? Who can afford to live here besides state workers, nurses and doctors
It's a mix of many things - the stable economy of the area, trade radius, and proximity to the Black Hills. Spearfish is a beautiful mountain town so that's attracted many people. And since the Hills are on the south edge, there's limited room for expansion. So it becomes a demand/supply thing. I've helped a few people buy homes in Whitewood and Belle Fourche that were more reasonable - and easy 10 minute drive to Spearfish.
