About Missouri Valley
Missouri Valley is the largest city in Harrison County (~2,680 residents in 2020), sitting in the fertile valley between the Missouri River and the Loess Hills on I-29, about a 20–30 minute drive north of Omaha. Platted in 1865 and incorporated in 1871, it boomed as a Chicago and North Western railroad hub — the roundhouse once employed nearly 500 people — before rail decline, strikes, WWI, and the Depression slowed it.
