Western, Nebraska

 


Not to be confused with the region, western Nebraska. 
This is Western, Nebraska: The village, in southeastern Nebraska.


According to Wikipedia, Western was (likely) named for 
Wesley West in somewhere between 1872 and 1880.


Western's population peaked in 1930, with 511 citizens.


The last census shows less than half of that.
