Aviation View - September 2024

North Platte’s recent $2.3 billion in economic growth places the community in an enviable position shattering every economic growth statistic in construction, retail sales and lodging. Having the advantages of major transportation corridors with east-west I-80 and north-south U.S. 83 positioned in America’s heartland, the community offers it all to industry with three distinct business parks offering connectivity to air, rail and trucking. Home to the world’s largest Union Pacific based classification yard sprawling over 3,000 acres makes North Platte unique. A new beef processing plant, a mixed-use mall redevelopment, a revitalized downtown, 2,000 new housing units emerging, and a fast-growing Great Plains Health medical community sets the stage for future growth. Our excellent education system offers public and private settings and a vocational-academic based community college. We are spoiled by an abundance of recreation with multiple lakes, rivers, trails, hunting, camping, fishing, world-class golf venues and a new recreation center. North Platte was named “Nebraska Community of the Year” twice in recent years for its economic growth. The fabric of small-town rural values wraps around our core in the sprawling beautiful farm and ranch country of the Nebraska Sandhills. Make North Platte your next business or personal home.
