Nebraskans

Omaha residents, broadly

Nebraskans are people from or living in Nebraska, a state in the central United States.

The term covers both natives and residents: Nebraskans are known for their friendliness.

Like other demonyms ending in -an, it works as both noun and adjective: the Nebraskan plains.
