About Yankton

Over 13,000 residents call Yankton home. The original capital of Dakota Territory, the town was named for the Yankton tribe of Nakota. Located on the Missouri River just downstream of the Gavins Point Dam and Lewis and Clark Lake and just upstream of the confluence with the James River, Yankton’s development has revolved around the contours of the Missouri. A 63 mile drive southeast along the river will lead to Sioux City, South Dakota, the current state capital. Chan Gurney Municipal Airport, on the north side of town, provides limited regional service but primarily caters to general aviation. Yankton's Riverboat Days is the most anticipated event that residents of an apartment or home rental in Yankton look forward to because of its spectacular array of events and community involvement.

Yankton College, situated in the heart of town, provides an affordable 4-year education and also is connected with the community by offering many of its facilities for use by the community as well as blanketing the area with invitations to attend special events. Residents of a Yankton house or apartment for rent value the Yankton Mall that provide a spread of various stores and shops that erase the need to drive into Sioux City as often. Fantle Memorial Park and Tripp Park are the recreational mainstays of Yankton and provide extensive services for residents of all ages as well as bus trips to regional cities for entertainment and shipping. The Fox Run Golf Course and Hillcrest Golf & Country Club are popular amongst Yankton’s senior community and attract a good number of visitors annually.
