Pence sits at a crossroads of the High Plains, serving as the primary hub in this sparsely populated section of Western Kansas. The landscape is defined by the transition from open range to the sharp relief of Timber Canyon in the southeast. This 2018 survey illustrates a highly structured grid of county roads, including Bison Rd and N Cherokee Rd, which partition the landscape into large agricultural tracts. Local history and genealogy are anchored by two distinct burial grounds: the Pence Cem northwest of the settlement and the Scott Mennonite Cem to the east, reflecting the heritage of the local community. The mapping also identifies topographic and geographical markers like Coyote and Dakota, alongside the county boundary separating Logan Co from Scott Co.
