Being from Nebraska my most favorite thing about it is it's wide open spaces and complete lack of population density and that's way I like it Nebraska is perfect for people who wanna get away from other people
I've lived all over the US and traveled all over the world and Nebraska has the kindest, honest and generous people I've ever come across generally speaking....everywhere has it's bad apples but in Nebraska they're few and far between.
Wholeheartedly agree with your statement. The first time I visited Nebraska I cried when it was time to leave both for this reason and having to say goodbye to my best friend. I live in L.A.
i’m from italy and i’d do everything in order to move to nebraska. i don’t know why but it appears to be perfect to me. the truest hardworking america. god bless you 💙
I’ve been to 42 states as of this writing (Feb 2023), and Nebraska, hands-down in my opinion is the most kindest and friendliest state I have been to. That is not to say that they are not unfriendly or cruel people here. I cannot wait till the next time I go there…….
I’m born and raised in Nebraska and never been to other states, but we are right, it’s definitely not from everyone. You definitely have to have an imagination to live here, but that’s how we are raised. There’s multiple things to do, and taking an hour trip to do so, makes it worth the wait.
That's exactly how I feel about the state motto, "Honestly, it's not for everyone." What that means is that it's for me! I'm from Southern California, but have lived and traveled all over the US and many places around the world. One of the most important things I've learned about travel and living elsewhere is that if someone isn't imaginative enough to explore an area and make their own fun, then I don't want them anywhere near me. I have a great aunt, for example, who has traveled globally way, way more than I ever have, but has only ever eaten at worldwide Burger King franchises. Huh? So if the state slogan weeds out those people, that sounds great. Nebraska is beautiful state with a rich history and largely good people, which is why I'm planning to move to central NE later this fall. I can't wait. I'll be able to have an enriching and more affordable life in a beautiful, interesting area without the shallow superficiality of So Cal.
I've lived in Nebraska most of my life. I spent time in Arizona, Georgia, and some time in California. I moved back here to raise my family. I own a home mortgage, a new car, and care for my wife and kids financially with one income. My home is 5 times cheaper than it would be in most of California. Sure it's "boring" for "teenagers". No mountains, no oceans, no where great to hike. But I already do not like the growth I've seen here in the last decade, Omaha. I left Arizona because of the amount of people and the tempatures. The Midwestern vibes of friendly people was great. But now all these folks are coming from big cities and bringing their negative attitudes, their horrible driving skill, and their politics. They are mucking up the place. It's not for everyone is a great motto. Stay away if you have shitty poltical ideas, shitty dispositions, and shitty big city driving. If you want to come here and enjoy the great things we have to offer, like a good family life and low homicide rates compared to leftist hellholes, just respect that it's great here because of our culture, don't bring your shitty big city culture that you ran from.
My daughter is 11 and my husband has had to drive her to school twice in the tractor. (Sometimes it snows ALOT and the tractor has a blade.) She hates it, but thought it was hilarious that you mentioned it in the video. Also, we are firm believers that we've never met a stranger! We love it when out of state folks drop in and we get to meet new people. We might ask loads of questions , but it's usually just because we're genuinely interested in YOU. If we happen to discuss what we've learned about you with our friends and family, it's not really gossiping. They are just genuinely interested in YOU too. 😉
You left out that North Platte, NE has the biggest railroad yard in the world! You can see it all from the Golden Spike Tower. OK, that may interest most for part of a day then it is back to boredom.
Glad to hear that Nebraska will be my next moving place I've lived in California and Arkansas only so moving there is exciting lol my brother has been living there since he was a teen he is now 32 he absolutely loves it.
As somebody who has lived in Omaha all of my life, never have I seen ANYONE do drugs. It's a busy city with a bustling crowd; nowhere to really hide while doing drugs. Though, as a Nebraskan, the people here are great. Sweet people, really. The people you meet here are usually kind and honest and generally people with good souls. Some people keep their distance, but those are good people too. When I was a kid, I saw a homeless man by a store. A lady came up to the person and gave them about $50 in cash. Really warmed my heart seeing that. Nebraska may be boring and not for everyone, but people over here care about it if your cat died. (Also when I was younger I saw a guy walking his pet husky and he let me pet her, the husky's name was Rose and she was the sweetest dog in the world.)
@@kayfor2351 hands down.. the country side of Louisville. Everyone's super nice. And you're not that far away from cities for your goods and getting out. Lincoln is also a very calm nice place(Louisville isn't much of a city)
Boring or not, I wouldn't change having grown up in Nebraska for anything. Yes, we had to make our own fun, but in doing so, we bonded with our friends in a way that kids just don't do anymore. I can go to my class reunion and have an awesome time seeing the people I grew up and enjoying our shared experiences. I grew up a farmer's daughter in a small village (that's right, a village) and graduated in a class of 17 in all. If you can't appreciate Nebraska for what it is, you're better off just passing us by. We like us and we don't need negative Nellies coming along.
My Ex is from Omaha and I've been there a few times along with Lincoln and I gotta say I was a big fan of Lincoln when I was there for the Huskers-Badgers game. Cool, clean college town with little crime, affordable and plenty to do and the Haymarket area was really cool and very nice, friendly, salt of the earth type folk.
I've lived in Omaha/Council Bluffs for 25 years until I moved to California. Lived there for 3 years and moved back to settle in Bellevue and bought a house. Its true when they say you dont know what you've got until ita gone. Cali was over-hyped and too liberal. I missed this area so much and my wife (who is a Cali native) loves it here.
After 26 years of being in CA i moved to Bellevue and I've been here for a couple months. Much more quiet and laid back for sure. But I miss CA a lot sometimes. I hate how liberal it is (and soft on crime it is) but I feel like nothing much happens over here 😅 with concerts coming back I don't see bands stop here unlike CA where there's always stops there. It's so weird to me being in the most landlocked state when I've always been close to the water up until now
@@ZeroFreak1 its definitely quiet and im hoping the amp up Bellevue a bit more, but surprisingly Omaha sees a lot of action. We just had the College World Series and Olympic swim trials. I know concerts should be back but yea, Cali is a hotspot for all that is entertainment for sure.
I was born and grew up in rural Nebraska, got my MS in ChemE at UNL and moved to California (SF/Bay Area). There are two things that mark someone as not cool. 1. Referring to San Francisco as Frisco and 2. Referring to California as Cali. I do not miss the extreme humidity of Nebraska summers (nothing like 100% humidity and 100 deg F heat. Good for growing corn and soybeans). I do not miss the brutal Nebraska winters either. I don't miss the constant prairie winds. Then there is the Nebraska spring full of snow slush and people wearing t-shirts and shorts on a 40 deg F day because that is a heat wave when you suffer through 30 consecutive days of below 0 deg F weather. Nebraska's taxes are NOT GOOD. Omaha property taxes will break the bank. Farm property taxes are also high. The whole state relies far too much on property taxes, and the state legislature is continually trying to "reform" the tax base. Nebraska is one of only six states that have an inheritance tax so don't die in Nebraska if you have a sizable estate. If I miss snow, I can get my fix by going to world-class ski resorts in the Sierras and not freeze. Sure, Nebraska can be low cost, but there is nothing out in the rural areas to do but work. Nebraskans are hard workers, honest to a fault and straight shooters. Nebraska is a good place if you love to hunt and fish. You might be able to buy a large house, but get ready when the first utility bill comes due (running the A/C all the time in those oppressive summers and heating that house in the freezing winters gets EXPENSIVE!). My latest gas/electric bill was ~ $232, and I live in a hotter inland section of the Bay Area. Much of the NE rural areas are being depopulated. My high school graduation class numbered 78 back in 1974 (and not counting the girls getting pregnant and dropping out). The same school's 2021 senior class numbered 22 (and one of the largest in recent years). Surrounding smaller school districts averaged 8-10 graduates. Bill Gates is a Corporate Farm Owner, the Nebraska family farm is fast fading. You do have to hustle in the Bay Area, but there are good paying jobs and you can staycation at everyone else's world-class vacation destination. With the proper skill sets, one can make $250-300,000/year in combined salary and benefits.
no fr though 💀 once my brother went to a nebraska vs iowa football game and he said that the husker fans started boo-ing the hawkeyes when they walked out onto the field 😭😭
As someone from Nebraska, the slogan’s not wrong. It’s truly not for everyone... but I actually love it here. It’s also surprising when I tell people that... just because I’m a college student and most people my age are off to California and Florida. I love the small town vibes where I can know every corner and in places like Omaha there’s seemingly always something going on! It’s also beautiful here, I personally think we have some of the best sunsets in the country. And some of my best memories come from BBQ’s in the country with friends and family. Oh! Almost forgot, GO HUSKERS!
The small town vibes are special. Agreed. Something about them takes me back. I was waiting for a tire repair in valentine. Another guy came in to drop his car off then said he needed to go to the store later. The guy behind the counter handed him the keys to a company pickup truck and said go ahead take the truck, its going to be a couple hours. I don't tell it very well but the whole scene reminded me of a scene right out of an Andy Griffith episode.
I totally agree; "It's not for everyone," and I would bet most Nebraskans enjoy that. I like it here, but I also like high heat and humidity in the summers and really cold winters.
"Nebraska... Honestly, it's not for everyone" may be absolutely brilliant. Think about it. So many people don't want others to California their Texas or New York their Florida or whatever. This is a great way to say keep out. Texas and other red states should have thought of this sooner.
That is exactly what I was thinking too. It really is true, Nebraska is NOT for everyone! Down to earth people who love to BS. Of course there are exceptions, just like every state. It may be boring but it is safe, I would take that all day over a lot of places.
@@kocoaberry7041 I design business logo,album cover,cover art,business cards,labels,flyer,portrait work,cartoon work or cartoon videos...I offer good rates and fast services
What a fantastic video! I can confirm that these things are true because I have lived in Nebraska most of my life. There is certainly a need for entertainment, but it is very, very stable here. Thank you so much for the video.
Lol, this guy is just continually circling my house in Omaha and saying "this is where you don't want to live". Its not too bad, pretty workingclass. It varies a lot from block to block.
🤣 for real, I went to school in the area and it’s not bad at all. But really, statistically the crime vs population is higher because of the lower population than other big cities.
@@dustinminor6479 honestly omaha isn’t that bad i kinda miss it well except north omaha like if north omaha was surgically removed from omaha it would be an exponentially better city
I live in a small town between Omaha and Lincoln and you nailed it buddy! Now I’m craving Runza. We also have brutal winters and terrible humidity in the summer
@@flapjack4886 grandma used to have land in a little town called Ithaca. We’d go to wahoo for groceries or to go to a restaurant. Wahoo seems like a nice little town
I feel like you're TOTALLY disrespecting my state! Here's the deal; I've lived around this country. Big cities and now a small town in Nebraska. I wouldn't change it for ANYTHING!!! Very little crime, affordable housing, EXCELLENT school systems, diverse landscape, excellent hunting and fishing, excellent place to raise a family, incredibly nice and caring people, etc., etc. You're exactly right, IT'S NOT FOR EVERYONE.....Let's keep it that way!!!!
This is the best place I have lived. The people here are the most kindest people I have ever met. They are always there for you. We have beautiful lakes and rivers very clean.
Oh I loved my visit to Arbor Day Farm, Lied Lodge, Brownville, and the Birthplace of Malcolm X (especially the community garden there). The airport in Omaha was the most relaxing experience I ever had in all my years of air travel. I ♥️ Nebraska and can't wait to return!
Having lived in Nebraska for 17 years, I can tell you this guy is about as informed about Nebraska as my dog is about my cat. My wife was born and raised in North Platte,. They have the largest train yard in the world. Bailey Yard
I drove through Nebraska once. It’s the closest time I’ve ever had to falling asleep at the wheel. I couldn’t even get a radio station for half the goddam state. I didn’t see a tree or even a hill. It was endless farmland and perfectly straight road. It was the late 80’s, I was a 20 year old stud with high hopes and an attitude of rainbows and waterfalls that only the young have the naivety to possess. I think everyone should drive across the country at some point.
Coloradoan here who drives through NE every so often: If you were on the i80 corridor, that is unquestionably the flattest, dullest, most unrelievedly boring part of the state. If you turn north off of i80 into the Sand Hills, it gets a lot prettier.
I live here in Omaha over 4 years now, from Miami Fla, and I have to admit my love and hate relationship with Nebraska I love the economy, the traffic, the food ,the tranquility but I hate the winter weather and the lack of fun activities here. Honestly I been living with much peace here. I almost manage how to drive in the snow, So I think I will stay for many more years.
Moving my family to Omaha soon we visited my brother this summer and we loved everything about it...this will be my next big move from Arkansas I grew up in California
I was born and have lived in Los Angeles California all 48 years of my life. With God as witness I can tell you every single thing presented here screams at me "move here." How though, I think. Those plains that go one forever looks so euphoric to me.
Great Ethiopian food and sushi. Pizza is top notch. Fresh produce everywhere. Plenty of places to shop. Terrific music and arts scene. Lots of great parks within walking distance. Lots of great trails and camping in the national parks and reserves.
I don't get this "make your own fun" thing. I'm old. When I was growing up, cable tv wasn't even a thing yet. We rode bikes, we played guitars with friends, we had famicom at home. Kids just stare at their phones now.
I had a couple of layovers in Omaha during cross country trips from the Bay Area to Chicago in the 80s. One was at dinner time and we went to a place called the Olympic Steakhouse, if I remember right. The other was in the middle of the night, and nothing was open. But wandering around downtown alone felt safe.
As a Omaha, NE native and currently living in Lincoln. Lincoln has its share of crime lately as well, but in north Omaha if you mind your business you don’t really have to worry about violent crimes happening to you.
yeah, North and South O aren't actually all that bad. If you don't provoke the people living there they will leave you alone 99% of the time. I can confirm this as a South O resident.
Your backhanded compliments crack me up non-stop! Every time you make a video I find myself wanting to move to that state but also to be expect very little.
Live in Lincoln for 30+ yrs when I came for college. Great place to raise a family. Not sure how I feel about the video though.....would like to see how you bash the other states.
I lived in Nebraska nearly thirty years (near McCook, then in Hastings, then Omaha), and I have to say: I learned a few things and, overall, you did an excellent job with this! Thanks for the fun watch!!
As a Nebraskan, I was shock by what you said. Idk where your from, but you called North Platte a TOWN!?!? A city for us is 30,000+ people, making Grand Island pretty big. Also for me, 1 hour is a pretty average drive. And fun fact: the Omaha zoo is ranked #1! Yay!
@Bunnyloverme02 any city less than 100,000 people is a town. St. Joseph, MO has 80,000 people and even that city is a town. St. Jo. Mo. Is the final big town/city before you get to Kansas City on I-29 South.
Whether Small town or big city, life is what YOU make it. It has nothing to do with population or tall buildings. Nebraska has 80,000 miles of rivers. Hiking, hunting, riding, fishing,boating, camping, good water, fresh air and lots of horizon. A sportsman’s and outdoorsman paradise city boy.
I think the most overlooked thing is that most of the larger town are only an hour away. North Platte, to Kearney, Grand Island, through to Lincoln and Omaha. People travel on I-80 all the time. People don't stay in one town, they travel a lot to go do stuff. If your smart and safe, you can go anywhere in Nebraska. Day or night.
Save for the crappy weather, I would venture to live in the heartland states, beautiful state and national parks, not too crowded, everyone busy doing their day to day instead of beating everyone else over the heads on doing what they want.
The forest that was mentioned is actually down in the sand hills. I am from western Nebraska. This is my home and I am proud to be here. Lived other places but can't stand all the people in cities.
I live in Nebraska, you do forget it's a good place for hunting and fishing. We don't have huge lakes but it's a fun pastime sitting by the lake catching fish and grilling with family and friends. 😃
I live in the upper east part of Nebraska, were "No one lives". Sounds about right my home town has a population of 600 and I like it that way, its cheap, everyone is super nice, and a great place to drink 😂.
Chalco is not a suburb. Millard is more of a ‘suburb’. Ralston is also a city of its own. Google and Facebook moved into the Papillion/LaVista area in the last few years, which just south of Omaha proper.
My wife and I are from Nebraska and I always love it when we're out of state and people ask where we're from. I tell them and they laugh and say Nebraska, what's in Nebraska? That's when I get to tell them cattle, four times as many cattle as people and that's just how we like it!!!
@@glenncraigmeyer07 Yeah, but Anaheim is in Greater Los Angeles which is a gargantuan metro area. Likewise, the Orlando area has a population of 4 million so it’s not exactly small.
I recently drove from Oregon to Tennessee and going through Nebraska was probably my favorite part of the journey. Thanks for making such a good video showing me more about the state!
@@philippinesball5058 No please! Not the Californians! They'll ruin Nebraska. I'm just glad I live in Kansas, and no one seems to want to move to Kansas. Which makes me sad that no one wants to move here, and happy that this means no Californians are coming to ruin it.
@Edgar Miller yeah I have no idea why so many Californians are even moving to Idaho in the first place. Don’t they know that it’s solid Republican bumpkin land and that everyone there hates city slickers?
Mostly right on, Nick. Chadron is actually pronounced like Shadron though. Come to Omaha where there are some things to do, except not so much during a pandemic. I’ll buy you and mappy a Runza!
Yep enjoyed some of Nick's mispronunciations. Funny how every state has that. In austin at UT there's a main drag "Guadalupe". Instead of the actual Spanish pronunciation, they say "Guadaloop" and Manchaca" is pronounced "Manchack"
Your exactly right my friend, when I was in Courpus Christi, Tex, I think it was way back when President Bush attacked Iraq, the news jocky on 98.5 KBAY announced the attack, and that a small western town in nebr named CHAdron, rang a bells when the attack occured. I go to my cousin, it's pronounced SHADRON.
As a North Dakotan I have been to Nebraska because my grandma lives in Sidney it’s pretty fun but flat and a lot of corn fields I was very happy to be back home in North Dakota
My wife and I were born and raised central Nebraska. Moved to Southern California in '09 ( wife's career). Made 2 friends, Roy and Gary. Moved back HOME in March of 2020. Miss Gary and Roy. Lots of beautiful things to visit and see in California. Most beautiful was the "Welcome To California" sign in the rear view mirror. Thank God Californians think Nebraska is boring and beneath their standards 😂😅🎉. We sure don't need them coming here.
LOL you pretty much nailed everything about Nebraska. I moved to Nebraska 5 years ago due to my job relocation. I'm one of those involved with the silicone prairie industry. Pretty much every younger generation I spoke with was surprised that I would move here. They all talk about moving out of Nebraska instead. I don't plan to be here too long either. Keep up the great and entertaining work.
One thing can be said about many small Midwestern towns: You drive by a Rural King or Farm and Fleet and they don't have a fence around their stuff that's sitting in the parking lot 😳. Also, the 4 block long "downtown" area has active storefronts with huge unbroken glass panes still intacted.
You missed Columbus it’s a semi small town that holds some cool stuff like the oldest tavern in the state built in 1870 that is still in functioning order and one of the main stops along the transcontinental railroad
This is honestly pretty accurate!! I'm a Nebraska native myself and you're pretty dead on. I know that Chadron is pronounced "Shadron" but other than that, pretty dead on. I eat corn with pretty much anything and also love RUNZA!! They even sell out of Runzas at Cornhuskers games! We of course love our Husker sports overall but to me, Football and Volleyball are the biggest Husker sports, but we take every Husker sports seriously haha. It's a pretty friendly state though! Even being african american and born here, it's a great state to meet folks and have friends for sure! Although I don't live here anymore, I always come visit and get my Husker games in and catch up with the folks! Haha😁🌽

@@tylerbarrow7576 what about Omaha?
Boring or not, I wouldn't change having grown up in Nebraska for anything. Yes, we had to make our own fun, but in doing so, we bonded with our friends in a way that kids just don't do anymore. I can go to my class reunion and have an awesome time seeing the people I grew up and enjoying our shared experiences. I grew up a farmer's daughter in a small village (that's right, a village) and graduated in a class of 17 in all. If you can't appreciate Nebraska for what it is, you're better off just passing us by. We like us and we don't need negative Nellies coming along.
My Ex is from Omaha and I've been there a few times along with Lincoln and I gotta say I was a big fan of Lincoln when I was there for the Huskers-Badgers game. Cool, clean college town with little crime, affordable and plenty to do and the Haymarket area was really cool and very nice, friendly, salt of the earth type folk.
I've lived in Omaha/Council Bluffs for 25 years until I moved to California. Lived there for 3 years and moved back to settle in Bellevue and bought a house. Its true when they say you dont know what you've got until ita gone. Cali was over-hyped and too liberal. I missed this area so much and my wife (who is a Cali native) loves it here.
After 26 years of being in CA i moved to Bellevue and I've been here for a couple months. Much more quiet and laid back for sure. But I miss CA a lot sometimes. I hate how liberal it is (and soft on crime it is) but I feel like nothing much happens over here 😅 with concerts coming back I don't see bands stop here unlike CA where there's always stops there. It's so weird to me being in the most landlocked state when I've always been close to the water up until now
@@ZeroFreak1 its definitely quiet and im hoping the amp up Bellevue a bit more, but surprisingly Omaha sees a lot of action. We just had the College World Series and Olympic swim trials. I know concerts should be back but yea, Cali is a hotspot for all that is entertainment for sure.
My God I'm in CA I can't wait to move.... it's like a different country....😬
I’m from Cali and want to get out of here thinking of moving to Nebraska
I was born and grew up in rural Nebraska, got my MS in ChemE at UNL and moved to California (SF/Bay Area). There are two things that mark someone as not cool. 1. Referring to San Francisco as Frisco and 2. Referring to California as Cali. I do not miss the extreme humidity of Nebraska summers (nothing like 100% humidity and 100 deg F heat. Good for growing corn and soybeans). I do not miss the brutal Nebraska winters either. I don't miss the constant prairie winds. Then there is the Nebraska spring full of snow slush and people wearing t-shirts and shorts on a 40 deg F day because that is a heat wave when you suffer through 30 consecutive days of below 0 deg F weather. Nebraska's taxes are NOT GOOD. Omaha property taxes will break the bank. Farm property taxes are also high. The whole state relies far too much on property taxes, and the state legislature is continually trying to "reform" the tax base. Nebraska is one of only six states that have an inheritance tax so don't die in Nebraska if you have a sizable estate. If I miss snow, I can get my fix by going to world-class ski resorts in the Sierras and not freeze. Sure, Nebraska can be low cost, but there is nothing out in the rural areas to do but work. Nebraskans are hard workers, honest to a fault and straight shooters. Nebraska is a good place if you love to hunt and fish. You might be able to buy a large house, but get ready when the first utility bill comes due (running the A/C all the time in those oppressive summers and heating that house in the freezing winters gets EXPENSIVE!). My latest gas/electric bill was ~ $232, and I live in a hotter inland section of the Bay Area. Much of the NE rural areas are being depopulated. My high school graduation class numbered 78 back in 1974 (and not counting the girls getting pregnant and dropping out). The same school's 2021 senior class numbered 22 (and one of the largest in recent years). Surrounding smaller school districts averaged 8-10 graduates. Bill Gates is a Corporate Farm Owner, the Nebraska family farm is fast fading. You do have to hustle in the Bay Area, but there are good paying jobs and you can staycation at everyone else's world-class vacation destination. With the proper skill sets, one can make $250-300,000/year in combined salary and benefits.

no fr though 💀 once my brother went to a nebraska vs iowa football game and he said that the husker fans started boo-ing the hawkeyes when they walked out onto the field 😭😭
As someone from Nebraska, the slogan’s not wrong. It’s truly not for everyone... but I actually love it here. It’s also surprising when I tell people that... just because I’m a college student and most people my age are off to California and Florida. I love the small town vibes where I can know every corner and in places like Omaha there’s seemingly always something going on! It’s also beautiful here, I personally think we have some of the best sunsets in the country. And some of my best memories come from BBQ’s in the country with friends and family. Oh! Almost forgot, GO HUSKERS!
Gooooo
The small town vibes are special. Agreed. Something about them takes me back. I was waiting for a tire repair in valentine. Another guy came in to drop his car off then said he needed to go to the store later. The guy behind the counter handed him the keys to a company pickup truck and said go ahead take the truck, its going to be a couple hours. I don't tell it very well but the whole scene reminded me of a scene right out of an Andy Griffith episode.
I totally agree; "It's not for everyone," and I would bet most Nebraskans enjoy that. I like it here, but I also like high heat and humidity in the summers and really cold winters.
I remember reading somewhere we were rated #1 for watching sunsets! 🥰💛
@@NickJohnson Biiiiggggg Red. GBR
"Nebraska... Honestly, it's not for everyone" may be absolutely brilliant. Think about it. So many people don't want others to California their Texas or New York their Florida or whatever. This is a great way to say keep out. Texas and other red states should have thought of this sooner.
That is exactly what I was thinking too. It really is true, Nebraska is NOT for everyone! Down to earth people who love to BS. Of course there are exceptions, just like every state. It may be boring but it is safe, I would take that all day over a lot of places.

Lol, this guy is just continually circling my house in Omaha and saying "this is where you don't want to live". Its not too bad, pretty workingclass. It varies a lot from block to block.
Sorry!
@@NickJohnson no worries, just made me chuckle.
🤣 for real, I went to school in the area and it’s not bad at all. But really, statistically the crime vs population is higher because of the lower population than other big cities.
I always say Nebraskans are better pound-for-pound and that's why Omaha seems scary because even our undesirables work harder
It definitely varies. I live in north Omaha. Born and raised.

Having lived in Nebraska for 17 years, I can tell you this guy is about as informed about Nebraska as my dog is about my cat. My wife was born and raised in North Platte,. They have the largest train yard in the world. Bailey Yard
I drove through Nebraska once. It’s the closest time I’ve ever had to falling asleep at the wheel. I couldn’t even get a radio station for half the goddam state. I didn’t see a tree or even a hill. It was endless farmland and perfectly straight road. It was the late 80’s, I was a 20 year old stud with high hopes and an attitude of rainbows and waterfalls that only the young have the naivety to possess. I think everyone should drive across the country at some point.

I live here in Omaha over 4 years now, from Miami Fla, and I have to admit my love and hate relationship with Nebraska I love the economy, the traffic, the food ,the tranquility but I hate the winter weather and the lack of fun activities here. Honestly I been living with much peace here. I almost manage how to drive in the snow, So I think I will stay for many more years.
You are right about the weather..I used to live in Omaha too and I really regret moving from Omaha.
Wish to move US oneday but it's hard
Moving my family to Omaha soon we visited my brother this summer and we loved everything about it...this will be my next big move from Arkansas I grew up in California
I was born and have lived in Los Angeles California all 48 years of my life. With God as witness I can tell you every single thing presented here screams at me "move here." How though, I think. Those plains that go one forever looks so euphoric to me.

Right? I live in a town of 200 and hearing this guy say OMAHA is boring? No, bud, I think you might just be boring 😬
I had a couple of layovers in Omaha during cross country trips from the Bay Area to Chicago in the 80s. One was at dinner time and we went to a place called the Olympic Steakhouse, if I remember right. The other was in the middle of the night, and nothing was open. But wandering around downtown alone felt safe.
Thank You Very Much For Sharing Nick.. Have A Nice day..
As a Omaha, NE native and currently living in Lincoln. Lincoln has its share of crime lately as well, but in north Omaha if you mind your business you don’t really have to worry about violent crimes happening to you.
yeah, North and South O aren't actually all that bad. If you don't provoke the people living there they will leave you alone 99% of the time. I can confirm this as a South O resident.

As a Nebraskan, I was shock by what you said. Idk where your from, but you called North Platte a TOWN!?!? A city for us is 30,000+ people, making Grand Island pretty big. Also for me, 1 hour is a pretty average drive. And fun fact: the Omaha zoo is ranked #1! Yay!
what do you do for fun in Nebraska
@Bunnyloverme02 any city less than 100,000 people is a town. St. Joseph, MO has 80,000 people and even that city is a town. St. Jo. Mo. Is the final big town/city before you get to Kansas City on I-29 South.
As a member of nebraska I do not recognize North Platte as a town
@@oscarperez9783Uh...we um...we...
Hmm...
@@AJ42KI disagree, there is such thing as small and large cities and then metro areas
Whether Small town or big city, life is what YOU make it. It has nothing to do with population or tall buildings. Nebraska has 80,000 miles of rivers. Hiking, hunting, riding, fishing,boating, camping, good water, fresh air and lots of horizon. A sportsman’s and outdoorsman paradise city boy.
I think the most overlooked thing is that most of the larger town are only an hour away. North Platte, to Kearney, Grand Island, through to Lincoln and Omaha. People travel on I-80 all the time. People don't stay in one town, they travel a lot to go do stuff. If your smart and safe, you can go anywhere in Nebraska. Day or night.
I saw their zoo in Omaha and was very impressed. There's probably more to see there. Just don't travel in that area much.
Number two zoo in the world
Save for the crappy weather, I would venture to live in the heartland states, beautiful state and national parks, not too crowded, everyone busy doing their day to day instead of beating everyone else over the heads on doing what they want.

One thing can be said about many small Midwestern towns: You drive by a Rural King or Farm and Fleet and they don't have a fence around their stuff that's sitting in the parking lot 😳. Also, the 4 block long "downtown" area has active storefronts with huge unbroken glass panes still intacted.
