Sometimes, you just know.
You drive down the winding streets of a quaint village lined with historic shops and inviting eateries and can immediately feel how special it is without having ever been there before.
That's the place.
And maybe, the entire experience started out as a detour or a pitstop, but the town's charm, charisma of its residents, and the calmness of its parks drew you into something bigger.
Like a painting frozen in time that's forever evolving and a place that feels like home to all who walk its weathered sidewalks.
Yes, that's the place.
According to a list compiled by HGTV, the best small town in Nebraska is Nebraska City. This charming little town was also named among the most charming small towns in America.
Here's what HGTV had to say about the best small town in each state:
"Home to the Missouri River Basin Lewis and Clark Center, and a former station on the Underground Railroad, Nebraska City, Nebraska, is especially lovely in the fall. The changing colors of the trees, u-pick apple orchards and cozy lodgings draw visitors. Don't miss Arbor Day Farm, where you can take a ride through the trees, and stop to pick apples at Kimmel Orchard to eat fresh or turn into pies."
