Bushnell balances wide-open spaces with easy connections to regional amenities. In Kimball County, this village sits just off I‑80 and the historic Lincoln Highway, keeping errands in Kimball and commutes across the Panhandle straightforward; the Nebraska Department of Transportation keeps travelers informed and roads in good shape throughout the seasons. The community’s low-key pace, big skies, and friendly sidewalks appeal to anyone seeking room to breathe without losing access to essentials.
Outdoor time comes naturally here. Cast a line or paddle at nearby Oliver Reservoir Recreation Area, then explore more Panhandle adventures spotlighted by the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission. Day trips are easy: head to Scottsbluff and Gering for the trails and vistas at Scotts Bluff National Monument, or venture a bit farther to the prairie landscapes and prehistoric treasures at Agate Fossil Beds National Monument. When you’re ready to plan a weekend escape, the state’s official travel resource, Visit Nebraska, offers plenty of ideas.
Families are served by Kimball Public Schools, prized for small class sizes and community involvement, while lifelong learners benefit from programs at Western Nebraska Community College. Agriculture anchors the local economy, with support and know-how from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Panhandle Research and Extension Center that helps producers and backyard gardeners alike.
