Lincoln is just like a 3000 people town. It's weird. I feel like a live in a hick town. Illegals are moving here like crazy, too. It's full of illegals and hicks. Omaha is far more sophisticated.

I'm neither a hick nor an illegal, thank you.
My father is the number one groundwater specialist (he works for the USGS) in the STATE, and he lives in Lincoln, so we're not all dumb either.
Nice try though. |

Omaha & Lincoln are not really twin cities like Dallas & Fort Worth are or the Twin Cities, They are something else, what exactly else I dunno. Maybe rival cities like Dallas & Houston who don't like each other. I found Lincoln to be cramped, roads seem narrow and parking hard to find.

Two Different Cities
It depends on what kind of city environment you want to live in. Lincoln has more of a mindset as a city to be a college town such as Ames or Boulder where there is not as much change as other cities trying to grow and expand. Which can be nice knowing how your always going to know the city that you love. Where as Omaha is begining to get the big city mentality. With the overpast just put in and then the soon upcoming projects Wallstreet Tower (downtown), Midtown Plaza (30th & Dodge), and the Aksarben area (67th & Center). Not to mention the fast expanding of west Omaha and La Vista. I do know that downtown Lincoln has a Upcoming civic plaza in downtown. So do you want change in your city for new and exciting things or to enjoy a city that feels close and without so much of the hustle bustle of the bigger cities.

The Dodge overpass which makes it possible to go from the interstate all the way west on Dodge with no lights.
