About Nehawka

Nehawka is a small Cass County village set along Weeping Water Creek, roughly midway between Omaha and Lincoln. Home to fewer than 200 residents, it offers a quiet rural setting surrounded by rolling farmland and open country. The town got its start in the 1850s around a local sawmill and grew with the arrival of the railroad, but life today moves at an easy, neighborly pace. For anyone looking for elbow room and small-town peace within driving distance of the metro areas, Nehawka makes for a calm, welcoming spot.
