State of the City
To love our city, we must know our city. Knowing begins with listening.
In 2023, we set out to listen to our neighbors and to leaders across government, business, nonprofit, education, human services, and faith.
Our goal: Understand what makes the Omaha Metro thrive, what challenges our neighbors face, and where we can work together for the flourishing of all.
A Comprehensive Listening Project
We set out to get a well-rounded picture of our city through research, interviews, and conversations.
Demographic Profiles
A clear picture of the Omaha Metro, its 6 regions, and all 48 ZIP codes.
Culture & Faith Research
National-level insights through our partnership with Barna Group.
Neighborhood Conversations
Thousands of everyday voices shaping understanding of life in the Metro.
Interviews with Faith Leaders
Assessing the health and effectiveness of congregations across our city.
The research resulted in our four key initiatives — each focusing on a component of our city needing renewal — where we join with the community to take action.
Moving Toward a Better Future
Our hope is simple: that this project equips Jesus-followers and leaders in community, business, and the Church to understand our city more deeply and engage it more faithfully.
