Richardson County, Nebraska

The southeast corner of Nebraska is where Richardson County calls home. It’s located right on the Missouri River, bordering both Kansas to the south and Missouri to the east.
Falls City is the county seat on US Highway 73. The county is a mix of farmland and forest. Agriculture is still a big industry but there’s some manufacturing too.
The Sac and Fox Nation has a reservation here, which really adds to the county’s diversity. Richardson County is the kind of place where everyone knows everyone. Small town Nebraska at its finest.
