Frequently Asked Questions

Omaha's northwest rental market stretches from park-side residential pockets to the busy retail corridors along Maple Road, and each area has its own draw. Consider these neighborhoods:
 

Tranquility Park Area

The residential streets around 120th and Maple, just west of Tranquility Park, offer a park-side setting with quick access to the Maple Road shopping and entertainment strip. Tranquility Pointe is set beside the park itself, so residents step out to trails, ballfields, and the Moylan Iceplex while staying a minute from everyday errands.
 

Millard

To the south, Millard is one of Omaha's largest and most established suburban areas, known for its own schools, shopping, and a strong family orientation. It gives renters a settled, self-contained feel with straightforward routes north toward the 132nd Street corridor.
 

Elkhorn

West along the metro's edge, Elkhorn pairs a historic small-town core with fast-growing new development and top-rated schools. Its restaurants, shops, and the Village Pointe center a short drive away make it a popular choice for renters willing to trade a longer commute for newer surroundings.

Omaha pairs a genuinely affordable Midwest cost of living with the job base and cultural attractions of a much larger city, a combination few metros its size match. Here is what sets it apart:
 

A Park and Entertainment Corridor Side by Side

This part of Northwest Omaha puts Tranquility Park's trails, tennis courts, and the Moylan Iceplex within walking distance while the Marcus Majestic Cinema and the Maple Road dining strip sit about a mile west. Tranquility Pointe is positioned so both the quiet park and the busy entertainment corridor are close at hand.
 

Headquarters-Level Employers

Omaha anchors the headquarters of Berkshire Hathaway, Union Pacific, and Mutual of Omaha, giving the metro a deep and stable job market. That economic footing helps explain why Omaha holds an overall grade of A from Niche and ranks #8 among Best Places to Live in Nebraska for 2026.
 

Signature Attractions

Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium ranks among the top zoos in the country, and the downtown Old Market and The Durham Museum add history and nightlife. In a city of roughly 488,000 people, these draws stay easy to reach from the northwest side.
 

Room to Spread Out

Northwest Omaha is known for generous lot sizes and larger apartment layouts than renters find closer to downtown. That extra space is central to the appeal here, where three-bedroom homes and open floor plans are common.

Living at Tranquility Pointe means Tranquility Park is essentially next door and the Maple Road entertainment strip is a short drive west. Residents regularly head to:

• Tranquility Park
• Moylan Iceplex
• Marcus Majestic Cinema of Omaha
• Westroads Mall
• Village Pointe
• Standing Bear Lake
• Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium
• The Durham Museum
• Old Market
• Glenn Cunningham Lake

With the cinema, restaurants, and park trails all within a couple of miles, an evening out from Tranquility Pointe rarely means a long drive.

Tranquility Pointe connects to Omaha's job centers through nearby West Maple Road and I-680, a short hop southeast of the neighborhood. Top area employers include:

• Berkshire Hathaway (headquarters in Omaha)
• Mutual of Omaha (headquarters in Omaha)
• Union Pacific Railroad (headquarters in downtown Omaha)
• First National Bank of Omaha
• University of Nebraska Omaha
• Methodist Women's Hospital (in nearby Elkhorn)
• CHI Health
• Nebraska Medicine
• Children's Nebraska
• Boys Town
• Metropolitan Community College
• Offutt Air Force Base (in nearby Bellevue)

From the neighborhood, West Dodge Road and I-680 give residents of Tranquility Pointe a direct line into West Omaha's offices and hospitals or on toward downtown.

Tranquility Pointe pairs genuinely spacious floor plans with the everyday comforts renters expect on Omaha's northwest side, including:
 

Standout Space and Full-Size Laundry

The community is known for the size of its one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes, with eat-in kitchens, extra-large closets, and a full-size in-unit washer and dryer in every apartment. For renters who want room to spread out, the layouts at Tranquility Pointe are the main draw.
 

Gas Fireplace and Refined Interiors

Each home features a gas fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and large bathrooms, some with double sinks, giving the interiors an upscale, comfortable feel. Private patios and balconies with storage closets extend the living space outdoors.
 

Heated Pool and Fitness Center

A heated swimming pool with a sundeck and a modern fitness center keep recreation close to home. After a walk through neighboring Tranquility Park, residents can round out the day poolside without leaving the community.
 

Gated, Smoke-Free Living

Controlled, gated access, smart locks, and a smoke-free policy support the calm, park-side atmosphere the community is named for. On-site management and maintenance, plus attached and detached garages in select homes, add to the everyday ease at Tranquility Pointe.
