Template:Short description Template:Use American English Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Script error: No such module "Infobox". Nebraska has 93 counties. They are listed below by name, FIPS code and license plate prefix.

Nebraska's postal abbreviation is NE and its FIPS state code is 31.

When many counties were formed, the bills establishing them did not state the honoree's full name; thus the namesakes of several counties, including Brown, Deuel, Dixon, and possibly Harlan, are known only by their surnames.
