The landscape around Blair is defined by loess hills above the Missouri River floodplain, which have shaped both the town’s street pattern and local economy. On Nebraska’s eastern edge, Blair faces Iowa across the river and serves as the seat of Washington County. The Blair Bridge carries U.S. Route 30 over the Missouri, linking the two states. The town developed alongside the Sioux City and Pacific Railroad in the late 19th century. Its Danish-American heritage is associated with Dana College, founded in 1884 by Danish Lutheran immigrants and closed in 2010.
