You can be from Wisconsin if you can’t pronounce the names of the city’s. Some of these towns are suburbs of Milwaukee and Madison so getting to work can be a challenge among other issues. Merrill and Waupaca are small towns that offer little in the way of arts and entertainment plan on driving 1-3 hours for shopping.

I agree about Appleton WI. Of all the places I have lived, I consider Appleton WI the best.

I grew up near Fox Point and then in Cedarburg. Great places, but you have to be rich to feel you belong there. What living standards are you using to determine these towns as the best? I would prefer Grafton or Appleton as growing cities with more job opportunities.

Merrill! I would strongly disagree, big meth in Merrill

Lived in Wisconsin most of my life, half of these places not heard of...must be suburbs of Milwaukee. You seem unaware of the western half of the state. You know the part that isn't so congested with traffic or less expensive or that's beautiful. Spring Green has a UNESCO site nearby. LaCrosse with the bluffs, coulees, and the Mississippi River is pretty. Baraboo, Devil's Lake, the Wisconsin Dells, are a unique area to live. Bayfield next door to the Apostle Islands is very pretty with a nice small town flair. A variety of small cities and towns that bump up against the Mississippi River or the St. Croix River are nice options. Honorable mentions to Mineral Point and Richland Center. Oregon didn't even have a grocery store til recently, it is basically a souless suburb with no services. Stoughton is a better option, it at least is a real town with some history.

Cedarburg is great, I'm familiar with and like Oregon too, and Stoughton, about 5-6 miles south of Oregon, seems as good if not better. And you're close to "Mad City" too! My top ten would probably include Platteville, Viroqua, and/or Mineral Point, all in the lovely "Driftless Area" of SW Wisconsin. I currently live in east De Pere, and quite like it.

Who the eff wrote this script tho? Cmon, chat gpt makes less awkward grammatical errors.

Waunakee sucks! It has no terrain feature worthy of mention. It's just basically flat. They use human excrement for fertilizer on the local crops that stinks to high heaven. The only redeeming quality is a successful high-school football team. Middleton ain't no great shakes. McFarland is probably the best of the suburbs of Madison with 4 lakes and a river and easy access to Madison. And what about LaCrosse and Prairie Du Chien? Both beautiful places
