Belmar, NE

Belmar is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Keith, Nebraska, United States. The 2020 census counted 199 residents. Belmar got its start following construction of the Union Pacific Railroad through the territory. Belmar is in northwestern Keith County, on the north side of Lake McConaughy, a reservoir on the North Platte River. That mix gives Belmar a clear local shape within Nebraska, with older layers still visible in current places. The local scoop is a place whose streets, landmarks, and institutions keep its earlier story close to the present. Nebraska Highway 92 runs through the community, leading west 12 miles to Lewellen and east 6 miles to Lemoyne.
