The Nebraska State Policy Initiative is an effort by the Center for Public Affairs Research and the College of Public Affairs and Community Service to summarize and present data and in-depth policy briefs to the Planning Committee of the Nebraska State Legislature so they may fulfill their charge to identify and provide policy responses to emerging trends in Nebraska.

Following the 2020 redistricting, Nebraska’s legislative districts were updated. We are releasing quick facts for the new districts, with data from both 2022 and the most recent year available, 2023.

You can view the pre-2020 redistricting legislative districts dashboard here.

6 Regions One Nebraska - Regional Development Initiative

6 REGIONS ONE NEBRASKA logo with state outline

At the request of statewide partners — the Governor of Nebraska, the Director of the Nebraska Department of Economic Development, and the President of the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce and Industry — UNO CPAR was asked to compile data from numerous data contributors and analyze the data to provide actionable insights for regional economic and community development. As part of the "6 Regions, One Nebraska" initiative, our analyses are being made available below. These resources are intended to be continuously evolving to meet the unique needs of the regions.
