Drought status

Moderate drought in 94.7% of the county

Drought Severity and Coverage Index 194.7 of 500.

Sources: EPA Map of Radon Zones (September 2025), EPA Air Quality Index (2024) and the U.S. Drought Monitor. A radon zone is a regional planning tool, not a prediction for any individual home — the EPA recommends testing every home regardless of zone. Air quality is shown only for counties that host an EPA monitor. Drought figures describe one weekly map, not a long-term climate average. Compare counties in South Dakota.

GIS Data for Hutchinson County, SD

The Hutchinson County GIS map on this page loads live federal layers in your browser, so you can check flood zones, terrain, land cover and district boundaries anywhere in Hutchinson County without a separate GIS login.

Where the data comes from

Property records and tax maps in Hutchinson County

Most people who look up Hutchinson County GIS data are after parcel-level records: who owns a property, what it last sold for, and what it is assessed at. Those records are kept locally, not federally, so they are not part of this map. Hutchinson County property and tax map data lives with the county's own records office, and what that office is called varies by state — Texas counties run an appraisal district (usually searched as a “CAD”), Kentucky uses a Property Valuation Administrator (PVA), and most other states use a county assessor, auditor or tax office. Start with that office for a deed, a tax map number or a parcel boundary; use the map above for flood zones, elevation and land cover on the same land.
