Redwhiteblack,
There is a Home Depot store in Sioux Falls...
I recommend checking out the Wikipedia article about Sioux Falls...It provides some good information...
Sioux Falls' population is just shy of 150,000... It doesn't have any really bad areas... The school system is great, the high schools are tops in the country...
It kinda has a small town feel, but yet is a decent size city...
Compared to other areas, we are open arms when it comes to accepting new people in the community
Just a few thoughts...but if you have any other questions, go ahead and ask!

Sioux Falls, South Dakota (SD) Detailed Profile - relocation, real estate, travel, jobs, hospitals, schools, crime, news, sex offenders
Hi Red. I'm glad you asked about links because I really need to check out this page, too. I had no idea that so many nice pics have been added to it. It's just a bit outdated and is a little more populated, but it'll give you a lot of the basic info. 
Average Weather for Sioux Falls, SD - Temperature and Precipitation
The above link will tell you a bit more about the weather. It's not my idea of nice winters, but I'm the winter weather whiner so take it for what it's worth.

Above is a link to the newspaper. It's the largest newspaper in our state and Sioux Falls is the largest city in our state. It's a nice and clean city. The Sioux River runs through it and they have Falls Park, which is my fave place in Sx. Falls.
The unemployment rate is hovering around 2.3% so finding employment shouldn't be a problem.
Our state also has a very low crime rate. If you can tolerate our winters and don't mind the fact that we have no huge cities, you'd like it here. As MJ said, if you have anymore questions, we'll try to answer them for you.
