Finding Affordable Omaha Homes Near Offutt Air Force Base

Omaha’s nearness to Offutt AFB in Bellevue makes it a logical city to put down roots for military families. As personnel return home from conflicts around the world, they’ll have to make many decisions on where to raise their families for the long haul. They should definitely think about the Omaha area.

The residents of Omaha do a great job of balancing city life with the relaxed rural lifestyle. There’s a downhome feeling among the residents of Omaha, probably due to its roots in the farm culture. The corn fields are not so far away that the people have forgotten their roots (or their manners).

With rural lifestyles so close at hand, one is never too far from the joys of spending time outdoors with the family. It is quite a short drive (in fact, a short walk, depending on where you choose to live) to the grand Missouri River, where you’ll find three seasons (at least) worth of fun. Boating on the river is popular, especially for guys (and gals) who like to go fishing for some bass every so often. But water sports are also popular on the river, and you’ll find water skiers out all summer long.

If you are a military family, you probably already know that Bellevue is the home of the base. But there are many neighborhoods around town that are near to Offutt, and they are good choices for school districts as well as homes.

If you’re looking for Omaha real estate, it’s a good idea to check out Bellevue homes as well, of course. But also take a look at Papillion-La Vista, a community on the southeast side of Omaha. You can find a list of some of the more popular Omaha neighborhoods here.
