To help you transition to your new title as \u201cOmahan,\u201d here are a handful of ways to quickly act like a local in Omaha. We\u2019re talking about both practical to-dos, like getting a Nebraska ID or registering to vote, and some creative ways to become immersed in the community, like attending events or joining a meetup group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us be the first to welcome you to Omaha!<\/p>\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get a Nebraska ID + New License Plates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re moving to Nebraska from another state, one of the first things you\u2019ll need to do is get a Nebraska ID and license plates for your vehicles. This will also help you pass as a local when you park in a parking lot and whip out your ID at your neighborhood bar!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve established a permanent residence in Nebraska, you have 30 days to transfer your current driver\u2019s license, which you learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/driving-tests.org\/nebraska\/drivers-license-guide\/#out-of-state\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a> before visiting a <a href=\"https:\/\/driving-tests.org\/dmv-near-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DMV driver licensing office<\/a>. You also have 30 days after arriving in Nebraska to obtain a title and <a href=\"https:\/\/dmv.nebraska.gov\/dvr\/reg\/vehicle-registration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">registration<\/a> for your vehicles. <a href=\"https:\/\/dmv.nebraska.gov\/dvr\/new-nebraska\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Here<\/a> is some information from the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles about how to do both.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get a Library Card<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/npdodge.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Library-3.jpg\" alt=\"Omaha Public Library\" class=\"wp-image-84369 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 850px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 850\/637;\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Why pay for books when you can utilize the incredible resource that is the library?
