As of the 2010 United States Census, the population was 4,260.[1] Its county seat is Ord.[2] In the Nebraska license plate system, Valley County is represented by the prefix 47 (it had the 47th-largest number of vehicles registered in the county when the license plate system was established in 1922). HistoryValley County was formed in 1871 and organized in 1873.[3][4] Its name derives from the local terrain: much of the county consists of valley land lying between the North and Middle Loup Rivers.[5] On June 12, 2010, the privately owned Bredthauer Dam broke due to heavy rain, flooding rural Valley County and the village of North Loup.[6][7] Major flooding occurred in the village, with water "eight inches deep and running down Main Street."[8] North Loup was evacuated for the flood's duration.[9] GeographyThe North Loup River flows southeastward through the upper portion of the county, while the Middle Loup River runs southeastward through the lower portion. The terrain consists of rolling hills. The flat river valleys are largely dedicated to agriculture, with some center pivot irrigation employed.[10] The county has an area of {{convert|570|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|568|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|2.4|sqmi}} (0.4%) is water.[11] Major highways{{div col|colwidth=33em}}
