Region & Climate

Chase County, Nebraska is located in the southwestern part of the state, within the High Plains region. The county features gently rolling hills and flat expanses of farmland, with an elevation ranging from about 3,200 to 3,600 feet above sea level.

The climate is semi-arid, with hot summers and cold winters. Average high temperatures in July typically reach around 89-92 F, while January lows can dip to about 12-15 F.

Annual precipitation is relatively low, averaging around 17 to 20 inches per year, with the majority falling during the late spring and summer months. Snowfall in winter is common but generally moderate. This dry climate, combined with the elevation and prairie terrain, defines the agricultural and natural character of the region.

History

Chase County, located in southwestern Nebraska, was officially established in 1873 and named after U.S. Treasury Secretary Salmon P. Chase. However, the area remained largely unpopulated until the 1880S, when the expansion of the railroad and the promise of homesteading opportunities drew settlers to the region.

Imperial, the county seat of Chase County, was founded in 1885. It quickly grew as a hub for local agriculture, supported by the fertile plains and the advent of irrigation systems. The arrival of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad in the late 19th century played a crucial role in the county's development, enabling farmers to transport their goods to broader markets.

Agriculture-particularly corn, wheat, and cattle ranching-has long been the economic backbone of Chase County. Over time, conservation efforts and modern farming techniques have helped sustain the region's productivity despite its semi-arid climate. Today, Imperial remains a small but vibrant community, serving as a center of commerce, education, and local culture for the surrounding rural areas.
