Tilden is a city in Madison and Antelope counties in Nebraska, United States. The population was 992 at the 2020 census.[3] The Madison County portion of Tilden is part of the Norfolk Micropolitan Statistical Area.

History

Tilden was originally called "Burnett", under which name it was laid out by the railroad in 1880.[5] It was incorporated as Burnett in 1885, but the U.S. Post Office officially changed the name of the village in 1887, after presidential candidate Samuel J. Tilden, to avoid confusion with Bennet, Nebraska.[6] Tilden was incorporated as a city in 1919.[7]

Geography

The city is located on the boundary between Madison and Antelope counties, with two-thirds of the city in northwestern Madison County and the remainder in Antelope.[8] U.S. Route 275 passes through the city, leading east 22 miles (35 km) to Norfolk, the largest city in Madison County, and northwest 13 miles (21 km) to Neligh, the Antelope county seat. Nebraska Highway 45 has its northern terminus in Tilden and leads south 23 miles (37 km) to Newman Grove.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Tilden has a total area of 0.78 square miles (2.02 km2), all land.[1] Giles Creek passes through the west side of the city, flowing north about a mile to the Elkhorn River, a tributary of the Platte.

Tilden was located on the Cowboy Line of the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad. The line was abandoned in 1992, and with it the antique wigwag signal that protected the main crossing in town. The abandoned line has been converted to the Cowboy Trail, running 321 miles (517 km) from Norfolk to Chadron; when complete, it will be the longest rails-to-trails line in the United States.[9]
