About Tilden

Tilden is a quiet, close-knit town of about 1,000 residents in northeast Nebraska, resting right along the border of Madison and Antelope counties. U.S. Highway 275 runs straight through, making for an easy drive east to Norfolk for work, dining, and major shopping trips. The Elkhorn River winds just outside town, and the Cowboy Trail cuts right through, offering miles of scenic path for walking, jogging, and bike rides.

Life in town revolves around Elkhorn Valley Schools, well-kept local parks, and the Raymond A. Whitwer Public Library. Every summer, the whole community gathers for Tilden Prairie Days, a lively weekend filled with parades, food trucks, music, and fireworks. It offers a friendly, slow-paced lifestyle with plenty of space to put down roots and easy access to neighboring regional hubs.
