A Midwestern city on the Missouri River, Omaha is big on hospitality. Five Fortune 500 companies call Omaha home, which helps to keep the job market and economy healthy. Healthcare, transportation and banking are the top industries in Omaha. Winters are chilly and snow-packed, but spring and summer bring temperatures in the 70s and 80s with a lot of sun.
Omaha has the highest monthly average rent price for a one-bedroom apartment on this list, but the overall cost of living is still moderate and affordable. You can enjoy plenty of events in the theater, arts, music and sports here. Omaha’s downtown area and riverfront have recently been revitalized and have seen significant growth. Among the modern attractions is the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge, which is an S-shaped, 3,000-foot bridge that connects Omaha’s riverfront with Iowa.
