Rapid City is an unincorporated community recognized as a local urban district[2] that also once held town status in southwest Manitoba, Canada within the Rural Municipality of Oakview.

Rapid City is a farming community that is developed on the banks of the Little Saskatchewan River.

As the railroad expanded in the 1870s, settlers were drawn to the area to build their homes and set up their businesses.

That brought it through the location of present-day Brandon, which resulted in that city's boom and growth.

Almost every person in Rapid City reported their mother tongue as English (97.6%).
