Pekin sits at the junction of ND-1 and ND-15 in this detailed 2014 survey of Nelson County. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Sheyenne River to the south and the eastern reach of Stump Lake in the northwest corner. This prairie terrain is organized by a strict grid of section roads like 105th Ave NE and 27th St NE, revealing the enduring agricultural layout of the region. The map identifies the local Post Office within the village of Pekin, a central hub for the surrounding rural townships. Tributaries such as Silver Creek cut through the undulating topography, moving toward the larger river valley and providing natural drainage for the vast North Dakota plains. The intersection of rail-era town placement and modern state highways illustrates the evolution of transport in this rural corridor.
