The job is in Omaha, NE. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.
How Omaha compares. Among the 40 largest places in Nebraska, Omaha is #1 by population, #3 for remote work (#1 = most), #6 for college degrees (#1 = most), #34 for homeownership (#1 = highest). Its county, Douglas County, is #2 of 93 counties for average pay ($67,868).
Omaha has 488,837 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 24.7% of the population of Nebraska. It covers 143 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 3,420 people per square mile. The median age is 35.3, 5% younger than the state median (35.3 against 37.2).
The median gross rent is $1,187 a month (rent plus utilities), 11% above the state median ($1,187 against $1,072). Over a year that is 19.5% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $245,500, which is 3.4 times the median household income ($73,201); a ratio under 4 usually means ownership is within reach for many households. 57.4% of households own their home, 14% below the state average (57.4% against 66.5%).
The Omaha, NE-IA metropolitan area has 498,100 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $49,660 a year, about the same as the national median ($49,660 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (55,630 jobs, median $47,100); food preparation and serving related (48,260 jobs, median $34,270); sales and related (43,380 jobs, median $37,540). The area is most specialised in personal care and service (1.4 times) and construction and extraction (1.2 times), where the share of workers is above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($108,120) and computer and mathematical ($96,400). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Douglas County was 2.6%. 69.0% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Douglas County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.
Among workers, 71.8% drive alone, 1.0% use public transit, 1.7% walk, 15.1% work from home. 5.2% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 26% below the state average (5.2% against 7.0%). Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.
40.1% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 16% above the state share (40.1% against 34.6%). 11.3% of residents were born outside the United States, 41% above the state share (11.3% against 8.0%). The poverty rate is 13.5%, 27% above the state rate (13.5% against 10.6%).
The warmest month is Jul, averaging 78°F (25.5°C), and the coolest is Jan at 23°F (-5.1°C). About 786 mm (31 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; May is the wettest month (121 mm) and Jan the driest (19 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
Closest cities in this guide: Ralston (4 miles, similar rent); La Vista (6 miles, rent 11% higher); Chalco (7 miles, similar rent); Papillion (8 miles, rent 7% higher). Rent differences are against Omaha; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
