That's because it's mostly agricultural and everyone is out in the fields , summer is go time in the midwest!! Comeback around Sept or October and you'll see a lot more action in town and also with small towns schools are consolidated so there might be 6 or 7 towns using a single school with all grades at that school!!! There isn't a junior high and a high school!!!

For decades I had wanted just to start out driving and stop and every town along the way just to see what was there. In late June Dream Weavers provided me a trip to do just that. But since my health is much worse than when I first thought of taking such a trip, I got so tired I came home earlier that I really wanted to come home. I wasn't doing the driving. My nephew was driving and my sister was with us. Now I get to see towns watching your channel. I love your channer.

Spent the summer at age 16 working on a ranch in western Nebraska. My parents sent me there to get me out of the inner city and keep me out of trouble. Loved the work and people, but hated Nebraska. Was 90° every day. The nearest town was boring, other ranch hands hung out at the bar, but nothing for a 16 year old. Now a lot older, Nebraska looks beautiful.

Nebraska has many people who love small town living and don't mind commuting, so I suspect the relatively high incomes for the smaller towns is because to a certain extent they're bedroom communities. Runzas are seasoned ground beef, onions, and cabbage baked into a yeast bread bun. You had cheese in yours, so it was cut open to add the cheese.

I was working in this exact area over the summer! Had a job flying drones over fields to image crops for the famers of the area and got to see all these small towns firsthand. Very neat places! I stayed in Stanton Nebraska for about two months during that time, probably one of my better summers that I can remember. Verdigre is probably one of the most interesting I've been to, but they're all nice places, especially not far off Highway 275 and the other local state highways. Watch out for the sand out west!!! The minimum maintenance roads I was driving on may as well have been play sand pits, seemingly endless depth of loose soft sand. Even had cactuses in some places!

I love it when you show a house and say that property has gone to nature. I enjoy your videos and love it when your wife comes along with you. You make me feel like I'm riding along with you.

A runza (also called a bierock, krautburger, or kraut pirok) is a yeast dough bread pocket with a filling consisting of beef, cabbage or sauerkraut, onions, and seasonings.[3][4][5][6] Runzas can be baked into various shapes such as a half-moon, a rectangle, a round (bun), a square, or a triangle. The runzas sold by the Runza restaurant chain are rectangular while many of the bierocks sold in Kansas are round buns.[7] The runza is a regional cuisine of Nebraska, with some commentators calling it "as Nebraskan as Cornhusker football."[8] It is served by the Nebraska Society of Washington, D.C.,[9] and the Nebraska Society of New York[10] at their Taste of Nebraska events and was chosen to represent the state at Flavored Nation, an event serving iconic dishes from all fifty states.[11]

These towns appear to be "bedroom communities" for the larger towns. Norfolk (pop. 25000) is only 30 miles as the crow flies and Sioux City is 45 miles by country 2 lane road. That could explain the decent wage averages yet low home costs. Empty streets during the day because most are at work, and probably why so many bars in the first few towns and not much else. Town folk wait to drink until close to home. Evening and night times are probably very busy in these towns.

What's with all the white houses there? Coleridge homes and buildings actually have color there! Gas station closed but they do have beer! Somehow I missed Laurel so let's see Wayne... They have a college there so there must be a record/music store somewhere - right? Couldn't see one as you sped through. The Runza sandwich looks somewhat like a miniature Philly cheese-steak.

12:21. Some distinct Victorian elements to that lovely old house. Wishing someone would buy it and restore.

The Dalmatian reminded me of something: The fire dept. on Wilson avenue (Chicago) used to have a real Dalmatian that would sit on top one of the trucks and howl like crazy along with the sirens when they were making a run. He has since died and they have a little marker outside the station where he is buried, with his name "Whisky" on it.

One thing about those Midwest areas; they are subject to violent thunderstorms and tornadoes during the springtime, which can be catastrophic in some cases....

Here’s some FYI and comments. The thing that is almost universal across all these small towns is how clean they are. I noticed one old house that looked uninhabited but the yard had been mowed. The homeowners in these town take pride in their homes regardless of their income. I’ve lived in Kansas almost 50 years but did some of my growing up in Iowa and have travelled all over a good bit of the lower 48. The folks from the coasts call this area of the U.S. “fly over” country and deride all as hicks with no culture. If they do drive through they never get off the interstate to see anything or talk to anyone. We have simple values. Hard work, honesty, patriotism. We don’t like people from the large urban centers tell us how to live our lives and run our businesses by government edict. Whether Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska or the Dakotas and most of the surrounding states we’re all pretty much the same. A couple of things on the lighter side. Runza is a brand name their specialty is a pocket bread meal that was brought to this part of the country by the Volga Germans when they settled the area. You will find that delicacy being served at mom and pop restaurants and church dinners or ordinary homes where they are called Bierocks which is derived from the original Russian. Also I know that someone will tell you this when you do the video in Pierre South Dakota, but I’m just getting a jump on them because I haven’t seen that video yet. The capitol of South Dakota is pronounced Peer. Don’t ask me why. I just know it. I would guess it’s because there weren’t very many French speaking settlers to pass on correct French pronunciations in that part of the country.

I wish you would interview some of the residents in these small town's so we can learn what it's like to live there and the history😊

The rolling countryside between towns with multiple shades of green is stunning. La Michoacana Hotel and Restaurant is the sort of place at which I would not mind staying for a few days. Kids' bikes left untethered or unchained on the outside. I'm supposing bike theft is a low risk occurrence in Wakefield. Given the demographics you cited, Wakefield and Wayne are definitely not dying. Young families have discovered them. You missed Ken's Market in the center of Coleridge! Definitely big enough to handle the grocery needs of a town of about 400. Given the surrounding farms, it probably offers plenty of fresh produce in season. Definitely nice places to live.
