Why Nebraska?

NOT a flyover state!

Whether a layover on a cross-country flight or a tedious span along the Oregon Trail, Nebraska has long been considered a stop, but not a destination.

But oh, how things have changed!

As our employees will tell you, personal and professional opportunities abound in Omaha and Lincoln. We live in one of the best places for business, most affordable states, and boast one of the top high school graduation rates. And for those who like to have fun, we are home to the NCAA Men’s College World Series, the Maha Music Festival, the legendary Huskers football team, the nationally-renowned Henry Doorly Zoo and a thriving culinary scene.

The reasons to live in Omaha and Lincoln are as varied as the residents, as you can see by these responses:
