Omaha Overview

Even though it's the largest city in Nebraska, Omaha still offers great access to nearby outdoor activities. The city takes up more than 46 square miles of land, so it never feels crowded for a place with a population of 486,000. Living in a rental home in Omaha is a great way to get to know this low-key metro area. It offers all the perks of a big city elsewhere, but with a more affordable cost of living. Omaha is a fun city to live in, especially for families, as there is always something to do locally. 

What is the history of Omaha?

The first people in the area were the Omaha Native American tribe. Omaha means "Upstream People" in the Native language. The Lewis & Clark Expedition passed through the area where the city is located in 1804. The current city of Omaha was originally established in 1854. It was the territorial capital of Nebraska until statehood in 1867. The Douglas Street Bridge, which crosses the Missouri River to Council Bluffs, was built in 1888. The economy boomed in the 1950s and '60s due to manufacturing, meat packing, and more than 40 insurance companies like Mutual of Omaha moving their headquarters here.

How is the weather in Omaha?

Omaha has hot and humid summers and chilly, cold winters. It has four distinct seasons. The temperatures don't get extremely high here in the summer; the average daily highs in July are around 78 degrees Fahrenheit. The extreme humidity makes it feel hotter, though. If you're looking for an Omaha rental home, finding one with a central A/C system is a good idea. The high humidity leads to frequent thunderstorms during the summer months. Omaha has several days of rainfall every month, with most falling between April and September. The city gets more than two feet of snow every winter. January and February are the coldest months when daytime highs stay below the freezing level.

How do I get around town?

There are some walkable areas in the city, but most people in Omaha have to own a personal vehicle to get around. The city has a nice network of trails for walking or cycling. The local bus system is called Metro Transit. It operates 135 buses with connecting routes through most parts of the city. Every bus is equipped with bicycle carriers and Wi-Fi. Several intercity bus services also operate out of Omaha and connect to nearby towns. The main airport, Eppley Airfield, serves millions of passengers every year. Because of Omaha's central location in America, the airport offers non-stop flight service to 34 destinations.

What is the Omaha commute like?

Omaha does get some congested traffic during the morning rush hour from about 6:30 to 8:00 a.m., and in the afternoons from around 4:15 to 5:45 p.m. If you work in the Downtown area, expect heavier traffic driving to and from your Omaha rental home. Commuting from West Omaha to Downtown can be done in 20 minutes during light traffic, but can take as long as 40 minutes during rush hour. Dodge Road and Interstate 80 are the two major east-west routes through the city. They tend to become the most congested during rush hour. I-680 and the North Freeway are the two major north-south routes through the city.

Why live in Omaha, NE?

Omaha is considered one of the best cities in America for families to move to. It has a very good public school system and many year-round activities for families to enjoy. This is a very pretty city to live in, with lots of water and greenery. The beautiful Missouri River marks the eastern boundary of Omaha, and you will find numerous parks, greenscapes, and reservoirs close to or in every neighborhood. There are four colleges in Omaha, offering educational opportunities for adults of all ages. There are a lot of opportunities to watch sporting events and major concerts as well.

What Omaha landmarks should I see?

The four colleges in Omaha are Clarkson College, the College of St. Mary, Metro Community College, and Nebraska Methodist. Omaha Central High School is located on the historical site where the city was informally established in 1854. The Burlington Train Station, Union Station, and the Omaha Rail and Commerce Historic District are places where you can learn about the city's rich history as one of the main rail and transportation hubs in the country. In all, Omaha has 110 buildings and landmarks that are listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).

What is there to do around Omaha?

For two weeks in early summer every year, Omaha is home to baseball's College World Series. Old Market in Downtown Omaha has historic buildings, quirky local restaurants, and many unique shops for an afternoon outing. The Omaha Farmers Market takes place in Old Market every weekend from June through September. The Omaha Symphony stages its concerts at the Holland Performing Arts Center. Families will love visiting the Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium, which features more than 35,000 animals. The zoo has the world's largest indoor desert and a massive aquarium with a glass tunnel running underneath the water.

Where is the best place to move in Omaha?

If you want to search for rental homes in Omaha, NE, there are many great neighborhoods to choose from. Papillion is a popular suburb on the south side of the city. It has more than 20 parks and outdoor recreation areas, great schools, and a carnival every year during Papillion Days. Chalco in southwest Omaha is another great choice. You'll find plenty of outdoor fun at the Chalco Hills Recreation Area and Wehrspann Lake. The neighborhood also offers the quickest access to I-80 if you need to commute to the capital city of Lincoln for work. The Aksarben/Elmwood Park is centrally located in the city, but far enough from Downtown that it doesn't feel crowded. It's home to an 18-hole golf course and great shopping areas.
