About this map

The town of Regent sits at the heart of this Hettinger County landscape, defined by the winding course of the Cannonball River. The community's grid is anchored by Main Ave and Railway St, reflecting its historical reliance on the rail corridor for transport across the North Dakota plains. The surrounding area is primarily agricultural, punctuated by local water sources like Indian Cr, Spring Cr, and the small Larson Lake.

To the south, the terrain rises toward the distinct elevation of Buffalo Buttes, providing a topographic break in the prairie. Genealogists and local historians can find the Regent Cem and Saint Henry's Catholic Cem situated northeast of the town center. The presence of the Enchanted Hwy indicates the area's modern connection to regional tourism, while a network of rural roads such as Regent Hettinger Rd facilitates travel between the scattered homesteads and the river valley.
