We (myself, husband and 2 kids, 4,7) are thinking of relocating to wisconsin. We have done some reasearch online with housing, cost of living, schools, and so on and so on. I have checked about some jobs and the prospects look good. what you read though is not always what is true. I could use some help from nurses or people that actually live there. We were looking in the Madison (surrounding ) areas as well as milwaukee and its surrounding areas. Any and all help and info would we greatly appreciated.
Just a little background. We live 35 miles outside pittsburgh and we are just tired of the TAXES, weather, roads, job market(especially for husband), people, cost of living(keeps getting worse), I could go on and on. We have never been to wisconsin however while searching on places to possibly go we were just getting a feel about the state. Plus my husband has 2 favorite football teams, the steelers and the packers.
The most important thing to us though is Schools. My son will be in 2nd grade and daughter starting kindergarten. My son was Honor roll for 1st grade and received a couple of awards in math and reading(he is a nerd like his father, lol). We just do not want him to lose focus and be in a school district that is below average. Any info would greatly be appreciated. Also if anyone knows if kindergarten is full day or half day as in our district now it is full day, which I think is much better as the children learn more.
Thanks in advance for any and all help!!!!!!!!!!
