Riverton, NE

united states

Riverton is a tiny farming town of about 100 people in south-central Nebraska's Franklin County. Most visitors reach it via I-80 to Kearney, then south on US 183 and local county roads through corn and soybean fields. The town sits in the Republican River valley, experiencing hot summers and cold winters typical of the Great Plains. The preserved one-room schoolhouse stands as a testament to rural Nebraska's educational past.
