Nelson serves as the central hub of this Nuckolls County landscape, where the town grid is defined by W Gourlay Ave and 1st St. The agricultural character of the region is evident in the sophisticated water management network, featuring numerous family-named impoundments such as Wehrman Reservoir, Frahm Reservoir, and Adams Reservoir. These structures, regulated by their namesake dams, sit along the drainages of Oxbow Creek and Elk Creek, supporting the local farming economy.
