Stanton County, Nebraska

Stanton Location Map Nebraska

Northeast Nebraska is where you’ll spot Stanton County. Stanton is the only real town and it’s also the county seat. Farming’s the main deal here with corn, soybeans, and cattle.

The Elkhorn River runs through the county, including through Stanton. This scenic river adds both beauty and recreational opportunities, with fishing spots and trails along its banks.

Folks here are friendly, in that Midwestern way. They’ll give you a wave as you drive by. It’s the kind of place where neighbors still help neighbors. That’s just how things are done. Not much excitement, but for some, that’s the appeal.
