Loup County, Administrative county in Nebraska, United States.
Loup County is an administrative division in Nebraska featuring agricultural lands with the Calamus River running through its upper central area. The territory covers approximately 571 square miles, with Taylor serving as the county seat.
The county was established in 1883 and named after the Pawnee Loup Indians who lived in the area before European settlement. Early development centered on settlers who came to farm the land.
Farming shapes how people live and organize their year, with community gatherings centered on the harvest and seasonal rhythms. The working landscape and agricultural traditions form the backbone of daily life here.
Taylor at the center offers essential services and facilities for visitors and residents. U.S. Highway 183 and Nebraska Highways 91 and 96 connect the region to surrounding areas.
With only a few hundred residents, this county ranks among the least populated in Nebraska and across the nation. This sparse population gives the place a quiet, rural character that defines much of the region.
