Prairie Home is an unincorporated community in Lancaster County, Nebraska, United States.

In 1872, there was a post office at the location of the future town. In 1891, the village was platted by the Chicago, Rock Island, and Pacific Railroad. The town's name was derived from a farm located south of the village owned by a Mr. Waite called Prairie Home. The post office in the village stopped service in 1968.
