Blunt
Blunt is a small town in eastern Hughes County, South Dakota along the US-14 corridor east of Pierre in central-SD wheat, corn, and cattle country, a farm-and-ranch community with a base of agriculture, ranching, trades, and the small businesses serving the surrounding farms and the nearby capital city. Its corridor-and-prairie setting anchors a small local economy.
