Chadron

City in the Northern Panhandle of northwestern Nebraska, USA, north of Pine Ridge, 83 km/52 mi north-northwest of Alliance and 19 km/12 mi south of the South Dakota state line; seat of Dawes County; population (2000) 5,600. Chadron is a centre for livestock, grain, and dairy producers.

Situated among buttes and canyons, it was founded in 1885 and was a rowdy cattle-ranchers' town in the late 19th century.

It is the seat of Chadron State College (1911). A unit of the Nebraska National Forest (to the southwest), the Oglala National Grasslands (to the northwest), and the Agate Fossil Beds National Monument (to the southwest) are nearby.
