    About South Dakota Opportunity Zones

    South Dakota has 25 designated Qualified Opportunity Zones across 12 counties, with concentrations in Minnehaha County (Sioux Falls), Pennington County (Rapid City), and several tribal counties on the Pine Ridge, Rosebud, and Standing Rock reservations. South Dakota's OZ program is small but covers meaningful economic geography across the state's two major cities and its Native American communities.

    Sioux Falls' OZs offer workforce housing and light commercial investment opportunities in one of the Midwest's most economically dynamic mid-sized cities, consistently ranked among the best places to do business in the nation. Rapid City's zones present similar smaller-scale opportunities anchored by tourism to Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills. South Dakota's tribal county zones represent significant impact investing opportunities in some of the most economically distressed communities in the United States, particularly on the Pine Ridge and Rosebud reservations.

    All OZ 1.0 designations remain in effect through December 31, 2028. South Dakota's zero state income tax, zero corporate income tax, and pro-business regulatory environment amplify the federal OZ incentive for investors.
