Eight miles south and eight miles east of Lincoln is Westfall. Located in Madison Township, on Elk Drive and 270th Road, Westfall is without an active business district, but remains host to several residents and well-maintained homes.
The Westfall school, closed since 1973, was refurbished by the community with volunteer labor to house both the Westfall b ranch of the Beverly-Westfall Fire Department, and a community center that is available for both community and private events.
Westfall is thought of as a “sister city” to the City of Beverly. With less than eight miles between them, the two communities share a volunteer fire department.
Students in Westfall are part of USD 298 School District in Lincoln.
