Keith County, Administrative county in Nebraska, United States.
Keith County encompasses 1,110 square miles of rolling hills and agricultural lands with the North Platte River flowing through its northern section.
The county was established in 1873, potentially named after M.C. Keith of North Platte, whose grandson Keith Neville later became Nebraska's governor.
The county seat of Ogallala maintains strong connections to railroad heritage and cattle ranching traditions through its historical markers and local museums.
Keith County operates on Mountain Time, making it the easternmost Nebraska county to follow this time zone, with Interstate 80 crossing through its territory.
Lake McConaughy, Nebraska's largest reservoir, stretches across the northern portion of Keith County, providing extensive water recreation opportunities.
