Welcome to the Panhandle of Nebraska!

We in the Panhandle are excited you are interested in locating your business, industry or firm in this region!  This is a dynamic area full of change and diversity, while at the same time retaining a quiet rural setting.  The Panhandle is deep within the country's pioneer and Old West history, yet on the border of one of America's major metropolitan areas.  We are a growing region, one that can offer you and your business the best of both the urban and rural worlds. 

PADD and the region's communities and development organizations can offer business assistance, financing and location information.  In our "Regional Information" pages we offer you some information about the Panhandle to get you started.  In our "Labor Market Areas" pages you'll find data about each of the labor market areas in the region. 

Don't forget to visit our "Tour The Panhandle" page.  Our "Virtual Tour" and the Nebraska Panhandle Tourism Coalition's photo gallery will both offer you an even better perspective of Western Nebraska!
