Tucked into the gently rolling farm country of southeastern Nebraska, Cortland is a place whose character is shaped by the broad, cultivated plains of Saline County. This small village lies southwest of Lincoln on Nebraska Highway 77, in a region where corn and soybean fields, grain elevators and long straight roads set the rhythm of daily life. Its name was taken from Cortland, New York, an echo of the communities and connections that helped name many settlements across the American Midwest. Cortland provides a useful introduction to Nebraska beyond its cities: open agricultural country, close-knit local life and straightforward access to the state capital.
