About Stratton

Stratton is a quiet, tight-knit village in southwestern Nebraska, sitting right along Highway 34. The town dates back to the 1880s, when homesteader Mary Stratton traded her land claim so the railroad could build a depot. Today, it’s the kind of peaceful place where neighbors know each other and life moves at an easy pace. With low-key community parks, local elementary schooling, and boating and fishing just down the road at Swanson Reservoir, Stratton is a great fit for anyone looking for affordable, wide-open rural living.
