Why? Think about what matters most to you. If location is key, cost of living is important, and summers on the lake sound nice, you’ll love being a Wisconsinite.
- Affordable living – Build a comfortable life within your means with a lower cost of living. You’ll thrive on the “Third Coast.”
- Family-friendly communities – Raise your kids with library programs, an extensive park system, and a good education. (We’re No. 5 in the nation for quality public schools.)
- Four seasons to love – Fest it up in summer, apple pick in fall, snowmobile in winter, and garden in spring.
- The ideal location – Enjoy the shores of two of the Great Lakes, a stable climate, and easy access to Chicago and Minneapolis (by car, train, and plane).
- Nationally ranked health care – Access superior medical care from top-ranking hospitals. Our health care quality even ranks in the top ten.
