About Melbeta

Home to just over 100 people, Melbeta is a tiny, peaceful community set among the irrigated fields of Scotts Bluff County. The village got its start in 1911 as a shipping hub for local sugar beets, and its name literally translates to 'sweet beet.' For anyone looking for quiet, small-town living, Melbeta provides plenty of room to breathe while keeping you only a fifteen-minute drive from the shops, dining, and services in Scottsbluff and Gering.
