About Naper

Founded in 1892 along northern Nebraska's rolling farmland, Naper is a quiet rural village with deep local roots. Community life centers around familiar landmarks like Heritage Hall, the historic jail, and local churches, with the quarterly Naper Paper keeping residents connected to town history and events. The surrounding Keya Paha and Niobrara river valleys provide beautiful open country for outdoor recreation, while students attend the countywide Boyd County school system. It is a peaceful, welcoming spot for anyone looking to settle into traditional small-town living.
