Hayes County, County of Nebraska, United States
Hayes County encompasses 713 square miles of hilly terrain with flattened hilltops used for center pivot irrigation across the southwestern region of Nebraska.
Created in 1877 and organized in 1884, Hayes County received its name from Rutherford B. Hayes, who served as the nineteenth President of the United States.
The county maintains traditional rural Nebraska values with a population of 856 residents according to the 2020 census, spread across small communities.
The county seat, Hayes Center, houses government offices at 505 Troth Street, providing administrative services from Monday through Friday between 8 AM and 4 PM.
