| Recreation in Southeast Wisconsin - 1/17/2011
Living in southeast Wisconsin provides access to a variety of recreational opportunities. The Milwaukee area has a large and extensive county park system that includes a variety of outdoor activities from golf and hiking to waterparks, fishing, and the Lake Michigan waterfront. There are also numerous other outdoor areas and activiities within just a few hours driving distance that includes historical (Old World Wisconsin), hunting, boating, fishing and skiing outlets for anyone who enjoys being outdoors. Also within a few hours of driving are some of the better known tourist tourist areas such as Wisconsin Dells and Door County. Finally, just 75 miles south of the Milwaukee area lies Chicago which provides the "big city" activities in contrast for those that prefer the urban setting and travel. [read more...]

| You get what you pay for and you get a lot in Wisc - 2/2/2010
I think Wisconsin has it all. Four beautiful seasons (though yes by March I am ready to see some green too) and the best services that tax dollars can pay for. We have great schools, great state and local services, and limitless opportunities. I have been in states with no sewer systems, where you have to buy stickers on every bag of garbage, where the schools are crumbling, and state parks, etc. are an empty field. I will pay my money and live here any day.[read more...]

| General Wisconsin info - 11/10/2008
Winters can be brutal. Beautiful natural resources throughout the state. Milwaukee charm (culterally diverse, summer festivals, parks on the lake, a bit of a small town feel with city "stuff" and Chicago near enough if you want bigger). Rest of WI has little diversity.[read more...]

| Third highest in taxes in the nation - 6/13/2008
We live in Northern Wisconsin in a city an hour from lake Superior called Minocqua. On a warm sunny day it is beautiful, but long cold,gray,snowy winters as we age. Moved up here from Illinois and did not realize the amount of taxes they would levy on just about everything! On retirement income, social security, gas, food, etc. We do have to say that property taxes are not any different than we had in IL., but the cost of living up here is hard if you want to retire and no longer work, so know that you may have to work part time at least, and that if you want to live lakeside, the homes will be expensive, even cabins or fixers. We were unaware and did not do our homework and so have now after 6yrs put our house on the market and hope to sell and move to a more tax friendly state and a warmer climate.[read more...]
