Hankinson serves as the primary hub in this corner of Richland County, where the Cpkc railroad line cuts through a landscape defined by glacial prairie potholes and conservation lands. The town is notable for its concentration of local history markers, including United Cem, Calvary Cem, and the Saint Francis Convent Cem. Surrounding the settlement, the terrain shifts from the protected reaches of the Sheyenne National Grassland in the northwest to the expansive Richland County Waterfowl Production Area. Numerous water bodies such as Lake Elsie, Round Lake, and Stacks Slough illustrate the region's importance for migratory birds and local recreation. The Hankinson Hills provide a subtle rise in elevation above the wetlands, while the sectioned grid of county roads, such as Co Rd 15, facilitates access to the scattered rural cemeteries and lakefront properties.
