The same could've been said about anywhere in the U.S. in 2009. We were in a recession people. Taxes are high, very true... But the jobs are out there for those that work hard and have an education. Even for those without a college education, you can make a pretty good living off of working in the Dells. Baraboo is a great place. Close to a ton of natural treasures (such as Devil's Lake) and other amusements. Not to mention only a 30 minute drive to the west side of Madison now a days with the improvements to Highway 12. Also, Julia, the cost of living in Baraboo is incredibly low compared to the national average.

I've lived in Baraboo my whole life up until now. I wouldn'r recommend it here either for this reason. The taxes are high and the cost of living is high but the pay is horrible.
