West of Bellevue and south of Omaha, Papillion is located in the heart of Sarpy County and serves as its county seat. French settlers named the city after its beautiful butterflies. These days it soars to even higher heights as one of the best small towns in the entire country, according to Money magazine. In 2013, Bloomberg Businessweek also named it the best place to raise kids in Nebraska.
Papillion’s 19,000 residents enjoy modern suburban conveniences and numerous public recreation options. Halleck Park and Walnut Creek Recreation Area are sure bets for outdoor fun with fishing lakes, biking and hiking trails, water slides and swimming pools, as well as basketball, tennis and sand volleyball courts.
In Papillion, it’s not a matter of what you can do, but can you do it all?
