“A secluded north Omaha location, historic architecture and competitively priced homes define Crown Point,” says Tina Sempeck, a Realtor with eXp Realty. “Homes sell quickly here, which is a draw for buyers and sellers alike, and you’re super close to good schools, parks and highways.” Located just south of historic Florence and due west of Miller Park-Minne-Lusa, the small neighborhood of Crown Point was partly settled in the 1920s as housing growth took off in Omaha after WWI. Emerging churches, convents, schools and businesses drove a need for cottages and bungalows, many of which still survive today. Post-WWII expansion saw the building of several blocks of raised-ranch and ranch-style homes, many with front and back porches added later.
Crown Point
Homes
Today, you’ll find streets lined with mature trees and sidewalks. Most homes have off-street parking and some have attached garages. Properties are an even mix of rentals and owner-occupied, and the neighborhood continues to be a good investment for small families and investors alike. A three-bedroom raised ranch-style home with a one-car garage, built in 1958 was recently listed for $165,000. A fully renovated, three-bedroom, walk-out ranch-style home recently sold for $154,000.
Schools
Belvedere Elementary offers pre-K through fifth grade and is walkable from most homes in Crown Point. It's rated a C-minus on Niche. McMillan Middle, also rated C-minus, has state-of-the-art technology, living laboratories, computer labs, and an outstanding indoor and outdoor athletic complex. North High School focuses on science, technology engineering and math (STEM) and receives a B-minus. It also offers extensive clubs, activities and athletics including football, volleyball, cross country and softball.
Parks
Miller Park’s 78.2 acres is just a half mile east and include a playground, ball fields, a swimming pool, a lagoon with catch and release fishing and a 9-hole golf course. A fun sprayground helps keep kids cool in the summer months.
Shopping and Dining
Long-standing family-owned restaurants thrive nearby. Weekends are a great time to visit Harold’s Koffee House on N 30th Street. A popular diner since 1968, they are known for their homemade donuts, breakfast nachos, and heart-healthy egg-white omelets. Time Out Foods is one of Omaha’s oldest Black-owned restaurants and has won numerous accolades, nationwide, for its fried chicken.
Boutiques and family-owned clothing stores are not far from home in Crown Point. Citi Trends offers clothes and accessories for adults and kids, as well as home goods like bed and bath decor. Lifestyle by Femme Fatale is a unique bargain boutique offering women’s clothing in all sizes. They specialize in clothes that are trendy but also lasting in style. It's a short drive to pick up groceries at ALDI on Sorensen Parkway, or prescriptions and necessities at Walgreens on 30th Street.
Transportation
When traveling across town or out of the city, I-75 and I-680 are both minutes away, adding to the convenience of the area. “If you want easy access to downtown and attractive pricing, you can’t beat Crown Point,” concludes Sempeck.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
