Why do I want to move to Wisconsin? -

I was born, raised, and lived my entire life in Northern Virginia. I have grown to despise the people here, which seems to me that they just come here from other parts of the country to destroy the area and reap its benefits.Here is my story:I am a senior in collegeI am a devote Green Bay Packer fan,I ve been to WI many times (but only in the summer....I know plenty about the winters in WI. Don t lecture me about how cold it is. Believe me, I know)I want to live in a small townBUT- My entire family is in Virginia, I know just a few people in Wisconsin. Being away from my family won t bother me much, but I will still need to see them.I just don t understand why I want to go there, but I really do want to live there and leave my area. Can anyone tell me why (psychological reasons perhaps)?3 days ago

Because Mid west people are more friendlier...Not as crowded...Fishing and hunting...Cheese...People knpw your name and care...Cold winters make people want company to stay warm..college party towns...(Go to Madison for halloween...) Wisconsin Dells in the Summer...Minneapolis if you get lonely for the big city...Take Care Good Luck...

We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it��and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove-lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove-lid again��and that is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one anymore. ��Mark Twain(think about it)

I lived in Wisconsin for a couple of years and found it to be very nice and a beautiful state to live in. I just missed mountains so I went back west. I say go for it. If you don t, you will always wonder, what if .A small town? Look at the Baraboo area. It is quite nice there. Good luck.

I can t psycho-analys you from what you have said, but my opinion is:You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Go for it. And if you find Wisconsin isn t your cup of tea, go somewhere else while you are young enough to do it.
