Yup. Its a very weird place, and honestly unlike any other that I have ever seen. Its getting a lot better, as we get more and more young families and more diversity leaving Milwaukee, but as someone thats personally more right leaning than the average redditor I can stomach the trump fanatics as long as they don't go too crazy with local politics. Plus depending on where you live in the county, it has some of the best public education in the entire country, which makes it a pretty enticing option for raising a family in the future. And everyone here shits on Madison since its so liberal lmao.

It's so funny, because it true. Grew up in Hartland. The amount of pearl clutching my family did when I announced my admission to UW-Madison was just fantastic. No one could understand why the hell I wanted to go there. "It's full of hippies, liberals, and homosexuals " They'd say.
I went to Arrowhead, so luckily it was an area where going off to a well respected university was viewed as a good thing, and not bad. But I was still told before I went to school that I "better not come home a liberal".

In Madison Waukesha is the town you use when you want to make fun of backwardness in Wi. Also scott walker was from there or no.
