Nebraska County Map
About the map
This Nebraska county map displays its 93 counties. 93 counties represent the 11th most counties in the entire United States, so Nebraska has quite a few. But one unique thing about Nebraska is that it has some of the emptiest counties in the US. It has 9 counties out of the 20 least populated counties.
Logan, Banner, Thomas, Hooker, Loup, Grant, McPherson, Blaine, and Arthur County have less than 750 people. But in the whole United States, the least populated county is Kalawao County in Hawaii. The county with the highest population in Nebraska is Douglas County because it’s home to Omaha, Nebraska. In fact, one-quarter of Nebraska’s population resides in Douglas County.
In terms of size, Cherry County is the largest occupying over 6000 square miles. It more than doubles the second-largest county in Nebraska, Custer County. Conversely, the smallest county in Nebraska is Sarpy County with an area of less than 250 square miles.

Wood River has grown so much. A lot of new homes have been built and have made so much improvement. There are 100% senior living places. That is where I live in two bedrooms and a kitchen area… just like you would have a laundry room, bathroom, shower tub, a garage for your car patio on back side table chairs, and a grill to cook on beautifully compared to when I moved to Colo. My husband & I loved it out there but he came down with ALS AFTER that I decided to sell our house and come back home good old Wood River Eagles going fine sure missed everybody!!!!!!
