Papillion is an awesome growing city near Offutt AFB. It has been named one of the top cities in the country to live in. The school districts are fantastic, there is tons of shopping and restaurants nearby, and there are a plentiful amount of parks and outdoor areas to play! Just since we've been here our area has really grown. The first Chick-Fil-A in Nebraska was built miles from our house and the first Dunkin Donuts in Nebraska just blocks from our house! And they're building more destinations as we speak! We live about 15 minutes from base and about 15 minutes from downtown Omaha. It's a great location because there's a lot in this area as well as out west so you're not super far from shopping and restaurants in western Omaha. Overall a great location and we're very happy to call Papillion home!
