Renter's Guide to Omaha
Welcome to Omaha!
This pioneer city has become one of the largest in the Midwest and a symbol of the historic American westward expansion. It has plenty to offer residents, with extensive sports and leisure opportunities, as well as careers within major corporations in the financial, transportation, agricultural, and insurance industries.
Omaha is particularly friendly to young people, winning a spot on Forbes’ 2016 list of Best Cities for Young Professionals. Last but not least, U.S. News & World Report placed Omaha on its 2016 list of Best Affordable Places to Live.
As the largest city in all of Nebraska, Omaha is certainly big enough to provide everything you need, without being too massive and crowded. It serves as the seat of Douglas County and is 40% larger than St. Louis, 10% bigger than Tulsa, and approximately the same size as Kansas City. On the other hand, Indianapolis is twice the size of Omaha.
Omaha is only about 50 miles from Lincoln, NE and 537 miles from Denver. Des Moines and Omaha are 139 miles apart.
The weather in Omaha ranges from moderately hot in the summer to mild and dry during the winters. Summer highs average in the low 80s, so you won’t be sweltering all season long. In winter months, the low average temperatures hover around freezing, with about 6 inches of snow each month, giving you plenty leisure opportunities if you enjoy snow sports.
Omaha experiences four distinct seasons, with December, January, and February in the winter, March through May for spring, June through August making up summer, and September to November in the autumn.
