Joe,
Omaha proper is a little congested, so the outlying suburbs are the
way to go. Elkhorn, Papillion are good ones. If you have children, the
schools are acceptable, but the school district is in an uproar at the
moment.
Crime isn't real bad, and the cost of living is comparable to other
Midwest cities the same size. I live in Lincoln, and the cost of living
is comparable to say, Ann Arbor where my sister lives.
Not a lot to see around here, sorta flat.
John

Subject: OT: So what's Omaha, Nebraska, like?
All,
I've got to be positively insane for considering this, especially since
I
just moved to a new place in NJ . . but . . .
There's a potential job opportunity there. So, uh, what's the
Lincoln-Omaha Nebraska area like? I guess in terms of things like cost
of
living, schools, congestion vs lack thereof, etc.
The job, should I be considered, is in Omaha itself. I'm not much of a
city guy, so I'd be interested in the surrounding suburbs.
Upsides? Downsides?
Thanks
