Review of Madison, Wisconsin


nice but too cold and liberal
Star Rating - 6/5/2009
Its socially diverse (due to University of Wisconsin), has decent jobs for being in the Midwest, near plenty of lakes and outdoor amenities, a reasonable cost of living, and comparatively low crime. For these reasons, I think Madison is a great place to raise a family. I’ve been in Madison many times and spent a lot of time there, and things are always changing for the better. However, I could do without the cold, and the city is liberal liberal liberal!

Oh, I love liberal because liberal places always think ahead and invest in things like museums, libraries and schools! And I love four distinct seasons, sounds like a place I'd love!
