One of the most popular locations for outdoor lovers in the state of Wisconsin is the Ice Age National Scenic Trail, a thousand-mile footpath in Wisconsin that highlights some of the unique landscape formed by glacial ice flow more than 12,000 years ago.

Now that you know a bit more about the state of Wisconsin overall, it’s time to narrow our focus to some of the most popular towns to visit and live in the state of Wisconsin: Milwaukee and Madison. Let’s start with Milwaukee.

Milwaukee has a population of 943,427 as of 2020’s estimates. While there are many reasons to move to Milwaukee, one of the biggest is found in the work-life balance. In Milwaukee, you’ll find urban living and a certain Midwest ambiance combine to provide an ideal work-life balance for modern living. With short commute times, diverse and affordable neighborhoods, and big city amenities, Milwaukee offers so much to residents and newcomers alike.

Milwaukee is also known for its easy transport. Getting around town has never been easier than in Milwaukee where you can take a trip on the new Milwaukee streetcar, called “The Hop”. Simply hop on and go from the Milwaukee intermodal station to downtown, the Historic Third Ward, (home of the Milwaukee Public Market) or the lower east side with The Hop. You can also easily get around with a free ride courtesy of Potawatomi Casino! Bublr Bikes. Just look for the light blue bikes at one of 30+ locations throughout the city and ride to whatever station you want. Another form of transportation that makes navigating the city of Milwaukee easy is the Milwaukee County Transit System. You can purchase an M-card good for a daily, weekly or even monthly pass online or at one of 90+ locations around the city.

Milwaukee also offers residents and tourists a fun and exciting nightlife. Milwaukee’s downtown nightclub scene is sophisticated to say the least with many rooftop bars allowing you to see various parts of the city. Make your way to Brady Street and you’ll find a more relaxed and hipster vibe. Water Street, on the other hand, is filled with fun bars including one equipped with a mechanical bull ride. Milwaukee has also recently added a number of bars that are fun and interactive, including arcade bars. No matter how you’d like to spend your evening in Milwaukee, the city has something for you.

Some of the most popular neighborhoods in Milwaukee include Juneau Town, Menomonee River Valley, Historic Third Ward, Brewer’s Hill, and Riverwest.

Next let’s talk about Madison, the state’s capital. Madison has a population of 264,030 as of 2020’s estimates. While there are many reasons to consider moving to Madison, one of the biggest is found in the job market. Fueled by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as well as the state government, Madison and the surrounding county has the lowest unemployment rates in the entire state of Wisconsin. Madison is also home to several big corporations including American Family Insurance and UW Health, as well as American Girl Brands and Epic Systems Corp.

Another reason to consider moving to the state’s capital is found in the fact that it is an outdoor lover’s dream city. Simply put, Madison is an active city with more bikes than cars, with more than 75 miles of bike paths. The UW-Madison Arboretum, 1,200 acres, has more than 20 miles of footpaths, fire lanes, and boardwalks that run through its restored gardens and prairies. The Lakeshore Nature Preserve also offers outdoor lovers something special with a variety of walking and biking tours, including some which run along the shore of Lake Mendota. No matter the season in Madison, there’s always something for outdoor enthusiasts to do.

Finally, another reason to consider moving to Madison is the fact that the city consistently ranks as one of the “greenest” cities in America. With high marks in parks per-capita and the percentage of people who walk, bike, carpool, or take public transport to and from work, Madison has earned great scores in terms of sustainability. More than 15,000 acres of lakes and 200 miles of hiking and biking trails add to the capital’s environmentally conscious approach.

Some of the most popular neighborhoods in Madison include Downtown, Regent, Schenk- Atwood, State-Langdon, and Tenney-Lapham.
