Saline County, Administrative county in Nebraska, United States
Saline County is an administrative county in southeastern Nebraska featuring rolling plains and fertile agricultural lands. The area is administered from Wilber, the county seat located in the center of the region.
The county was formed in 1867 during Nebraska's early statehood period. Wilber became the administrative center in 1878, replacing the previous county seat.
