Thinking about moving to Omaha..

Didn't he live in Bellevue? Why does that matter? Also why do you say try again, you yourself said you were just giving an opinion on an opinionated site, so are these other posters. So basically I'm reading that their opinions are wrong and you are right. Your entitled to your opinion and the right to defend your opinion, just choose your words carefully.

Your life really slows down here, allows you to enjoy life much more. I was raised in the Midwest so maybe thats why i like it, but my wife being from California understands why we moved here....cheap housing, great place to raise kids. Yea the weather is rough, but it sure is nice to have actual seasons again! My suggestion is to look for something on the west side of Omaha cause everything new is being built there and i think you get more for your money. And if you plan on working at Offutt...stay in Bellevue, they have the best school system in the area and being close to the base during bad weather is ideal. Stay away from Papillion, La Vista and especially Ralston (people are a little strange and redneckish) the drive to the base is extremely slow and backed up from these areas. Plattsmouth is Redneck ville too but its mostly interstate to the base.

I wouldn't agree with Ralston. Ralston is actually a very nice area with small town appeal. Every year they hold their annual 4th of July celebration and the town comes together to celebrate. I'm sure there are some "strange" people but I lived their for 23 years of my life and didn't meet too many of them.

Agree. If you want a small town in the city -which also is very safe- Ralston would be high on the list.

Ralston is one of those towns that used to be a "small town" until so much was built around it that hell....you don't know if your in La Vista, Omaha or even Papillion for that matter. It is just a melting pot, really....it's sad.
I really cannot call Ralston a small town, just too many main roads and highways around it.
And i hate to say it but....every town has a annual 4th of July Event.

Ralston isn't a small town because it's surrounded by almost 1,000,000 people.

Suggestions: Glenwood, Harlan, or Missouri Valley. I personally would would not live in Carter Lake, Council Bluffs, or Bellevue.

Hope this helps!

why not Bellevue?
I am moving to Nebraska soon and this is one of my top choices......
