A genuinely small residential core

Keystone's own residential areas are genuinely limited given the town's tiny year-round population, set apart from -- though close to -- its tourist-commercial main strip.

Proximity to Mount Rushmore itself

Keystone's defining locational advantage is its direct proximity to Mount Rushmore National Memorial, just beyond town limits.

Confirm current, address-specific data

Given Keystone's genuinely tiny scale, confirm current, address-specific property, zoning, and seasonal-noise/traffic expectations directly with a local agent before choosing a specific residence.
