Emerald is an unincorporated community in Lancaster County, Nebraska, United States.
A post office was established at Emerald in 1884, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1943.[2] The community was so named because its landscape was said to be as green as an emerald.[3]
A portion of Emerald is within Lincoln Public Schools. Another portion is zoned to Malcolm Public Schools.[4]
