Living in Lincoln
What's it like to live in Lincoln? Well, the pace of life here is slower than what you'll find in other Midwestern cities like Chicago or Minneapolis. Lincoln is all about small town values and friendly people, so if you're looking to escape from big city life, a place like this may be perfect.
Of course, these same advantages can be big disadvantages if you're the type of person who loves shopping, culture, and skyscrapers. Addicted to the cosmopolitan lifestyle? Lincoln probably won't check your boxes. Lincoln is also a pretty non-diverse place in terms of ethnicities. The population here is almost entirely white.
Things to do in Lincoln

But where Lincoln really shines is its parks. Start with the Sunken Gardens, which ranks among the best public gardens in the US.
When you're finished there, you can make your way to Pioneer Park and Nature Center, Holmes Park and Lake, or Antelope Park. All in all, the city features over 130 miles of trails for walking or biking.
Shoppers can make their way to Gateway Mall or SouthPointe Pavilions Shopping Center. They're also great places to grab a bite.
But perhaps the biggest draw—one that the locals take very seriously—is college football. University of Nebraska Cornhuskers games are major events that almost everyone participates in. Cheering the home team on among a sold out crowd is a great experience—just make sure to wear red!
