Butte County, County in South Dakota, United States
Located in the northern part of South Dakota, Butte County extends across 5,870 square kilometers, including 46 square kilometers of water bodies.
Established in 1883, the county takes its name from the numerous elevated landforms that define its natural landscape throughout the territory.
The territory maintains connections to both Native American heritage and European settler traditions through local celebrations and community gatherings.
Belle Fourche, the county seat, serves as the main administrative center and provides essential services to the 10,110 residents recorded in 2010.
The county landscape features multiple buttes, which are flat-topped hills with steep sides, forming natural landmarks across the northern plains region.
