About Union
Union is a quiet village set among the rolling fields of Cass County in southeastern Nebraska. Founded in 1890 where two railroad lines crossed, the town earned its name from the junction that connected routes heading toward Omaha, Lincoln, and Nebraska City. Those early rail days established the village layout, leaving behind a compact, peaceful neighborhood surrounded by open farmland.
For anyone thinking about moving here, Union offers a relaxed, small-town setting with convenient access to nearby cities. Highway connections make it an easy drive south to Nebraska City for local errands or north into the Omaha metro for work and entertainment. It is a welcoming spot for people who value quiet evenings, plenty of elbow room, and a genuine country atmosphere.
