Insurance in Weston: the local picture
Weston’s got two things that keep me busy on the insurance side: weather that doesn’t quit and a downtown that’s all about local flavor. Between the Elkhorn River flooding the low spots after spring thaws and the summer supercells that roll off I-80 dropping baseball-size hail, you’re writing more wind/hail and flood endorsements than you are in Lincoln. When Veskerna and Don Kros are replacing busted AC units after a May storm, the commercial property and inland marine lines for contractors’ tools and equipment light up fast. Add in the historic restaurant and wedding venue downtown—Perfect for weddings, parties or just a great meal and drinks—and you’re layering in liquor liability, event cancellation, and spoilage coverage every time a line of storms rolls toward the Saunders County Courthouse. Homeowners here love their century-old brick bungalows, but the 1998 and 2019 hail events are still fresh in everyone’s memory, so impact-resistant shingle and siding discounts are an easy close. Flood is low-to-moderate for most of town, but the Elkhorn’s floodplain north of the Historic District still triggers NFIP policies for anyone with a mortgage on the river side of Main Street.
Population: 250 (2020)
