Folsom serves as the central settlement point in this southwestern South Dakota landscape, positioned along the edge of the Buffalo Gap National Grassland. The area's agricultural and rural character is defined by the drainage patterns of Spring Cr and Elkhorn Draw, while distinctive geological markers like the Railroad Buttes and Phiney Flat provide topographic context. Local history is anchored at the Folsom Cem, situated near a significant tract identified as the Farm Service Agency Interest of South Dakota. Transportation in the region is established by a network of local routes including the Farmingdale-Folsom Rd and Lower Spring Creek Rd, which connect the scattered homesteads and public lands of Custer and Pennington counties.
