Central Lincoln is a quiet neighborhood anchored by multiple parks, several medical facilities and an abundance of housing options. Located southeast of Downtown Lincoln and the University of Nebraska flagship campus, the community is mainly residential, with numerous single-family homes and multifamily units.

The area is also home to multiple restaurants and shopping destinations for everyday needs. “It’s a quiet, out-of-the-way neighborhood. You probably don’t even know it’s there, because people don’t go there unless they [live] there” says Mark Meierdierks, an agent with Premier Real Estate who has over 10 years of experience.

Architectural styles in the neighborhood can vary from ranch styles, split-levels and bungalows to Colonial Revivals and New Traditionals. Townhomes and multifamily units are also present.
