Been in Milwaukee for the past year and I have to say -- Milwaukee is underrated. We came from Boston to do an accelerator, gener8tor, in Madison (also a great city worth looking at) and ended up here. * Cost of living is low and quality of life is high.
* People know how to have a good time and there's always something to do (sports are huge - Packers, Brewers, Bucks, college sports, etc).
* Summer is AMAZING. There's an incredible number of festivals going on (with summerfest at the forefront).
* Commutes are super short.
* Lake Michigan is awesome.
* Chicago is only 75 minutes away by train or car.
* The startup scene is on the rise. The downsides are: * Cold winters (comparable to Boston with less snow but colder winds).
* While not necessary, a car is desirable.
* The tech scene is relatively small. (But growing!) |
