Location

University Village will be developed on 107 acres of farmland owned by the University. The land is located within the city limits of Kearney, south of the main UNK campus and directly south of the new Health Science Education Complex. The property’s location provides strategic advantages and prime development opportunities while other recently completed University and community projects have in fact further enhanced the potential of University Village. Spurred by the completion of the Health Science Education Complex and its inestimable future impact on health care in the Kearney region, University Village has captured the imagination and interest of UNK and the Kearney area community for its potential to spark an unprecedented era of collaboration and innovation.

Addressing Residential Needs, Gaps, and Choices

In addition to enhancing student, faculty and staff residential options, University Village will offer living options to the community at a time when housing is at a premium in Kearney. The development will create distinctive and diverse residential opportunities for the many people that desire to live close to UNK and those that have deep affinity and appreciation for the University. A unique synergy will attract commercial, retail and municipal operations, which in turn will attract more residents. University Village will quickly become a dynamic destination for people seeking its unique blend of residential, retail, service, municipal, and recreational activities and amenities.
