Sheridan County, County in Nebraska, United States.
Sheridan County spans 2,470 square miles of diverse terrain, with sandhills range land in the south and pine-covered hills in the northern section.
Established in 1885, the county received its name from General Philip H. Sheridan and selected Rushville as the administrative center for local governance.
The four incorporated communities of Rushville, Gordon, Hay Springs, and Clinton maintain distinct local identities while sharing agricultural and ranching traditions.

The Box Butte Reservoir in the southeast section enables irrigation systems that support agricultural production across the Mirage Flats district.
