Ralston is a city in Douglas County, Nebraska,
United States. The population is 6,314 as of the 2000 census. Ralston
is
geographically surrounded by Omaha, Nebraska but is a separate city.
Since Ralston's population is below 10,000, state law technically
allows for Omaha to forcibly annex Ralston as they did with Elkhorn
in 2007, and Millard in 1971.
There is an agreement dating to the 1960s whereby Omaha will leave
Ralston as an independent city.
Early in the last century Ralston was a resort town with a 47 acre
lake located on the east end of the city. It was a popular destination
for Omaha's well to do. Some of the cabins still exist as houses on the
west end of the former lake. The lake was drained around World War II
and a golf course built. The golf course is now the site of new
commercial development.
