Republican City, NE

Founded in 1871 along the Republican River, Republican City has a unique backstory. In the early 1950s, the entire community moved to higher ground when Harlan County Reservoir was built, leaving the original townsite beneath the water. Today, this quiet village sits just a couple miles north of the lake, making it a great spot for anyone who loves boating, fishing, and relaxed lakeside living. As the only town in the country with its name, it offers a peaceful rural lifestyle with one of Nebraska's favorite outdoor recreation areas right in the backyard.
