About Kimball (Nebraska)

Many tiny places hidden in the United States are proud of their home town and Kimball is no exception. Kimball has historically been called by two different names. Established in 1870, the plot of land that would become Kimball was called "Antelopeville" due to the large population of antelope in the area. In honor of Uninion Pacific worker Thomas Kimball, "Antelopeville" became Kimball in 1885. Kimball has seen periods of growth and decline. There was a little over four thousand people residing in Kimball in 1950. With a population half that size today, there remains an open question on what exactly caused the decline.
