It is located within Scenic Township, which had a 2010 census population of 58 inhabitants. The community is located adjacent to the Badlands National Park, about {{convert|50|mi}} southeast of Rapid City,[3] or about one hour by car,[3] along Highway 44. HistoryThe community was so named for the "scenic" setting of the town site.[4] As an economic decline hit the town in the 21st century, Twila Merril acquired more and more of the town property until she owned most of it.[3] In July 2011, the {{convert|12|acre|adj=on}} town and surrounding area—about {{convert|46|acre}} total—was listed for sale at $799,000. The sale includes the post office (ZIP code 57780), Longhorn Saloon, a dance hall, bunkhouse, museum, and two stores.[5][6][7] It also includes a train depot[7] that is on an abandoned line that was part of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad and is the subject of a {{convert|104|mi|adj=on}} rails-to-trail project between Rapid City and Kadoka.[8] In August 2011, the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC, {{lang-en|Church of Christ}}), an independent, nontrinitarian Christian denomination based in the Philippines, bought the property for nearly $800,000, Pennington County records show.[9][10] The church never disclosed why it acquired the property. In 2014, Daniel Simmons-Ritchie of the Rapid City Journal wrote that the INC "has done little with the town since its purchase."[3] In April 2015, an INC minister moved to the area and soon afterwards began leading services for 10-15 congregants who live near Scenic.[11] See also
