Fullerton is located in Nance County (of which it is the county seat), west of Columbus, between Genoa and Wolbach along Hwy 22. The population estimate for July 1, 1998 was 1,364, a decrease of 88 since 1990.
In July 1876, Randall Fuller, enroute with a large herd of cattle from Faribault, Minnesota, to Colorado was so impressed with the lush prairies, the Cedar and Loup rivers and many other features of the country that he decided to locate and establish his future headquarters here.
Fullerton is at the heart of the best hunting and agricultural land in Nebraska.
A beautiful 9-hole grass green golf course and clubhouse is located with scenic views of the Cedar River Valley. Broken Arrow Wilderness, a camping facility offering a broad range of relaxing activities, is also nearby.
