There's much to love about Downtown Lincoln -- it is considered a biker's paradise, it is walkable, and it is home to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Downtown has it all -- trendy shopping districts, art walks, antique stores, gorgeous architecture, and fantastic restaurants. The Haymarket District, the city's original "square," offers a variety of boutiques, bars, restaurants, and the Pinnacle Bank Arena. The P Street District, located a block south of the university, offers more restaurants, shops, and bars in addition to a theater and two museums. College football fans can cheer on the Cornhuskers at Memorial Stadium, located off North 10th Street.
Lincoln is the state capital, and the Capitol Building features a 400-foot observation tower. It is located off Lincoln Mall and 14th Street. Other downtown attractions include the Lincoln Children's Museum, the Sheldon Museum of Art, the Sunken Gardens, and the Lincoln Children's Zoo.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
