[quote=Anonymous]Depends on what you want, big city or small city. Are you an east coaster through and through? If so, stay here. But if not, Madison is great. Sure, winter is freezing, but all three other seasons are great.  Lots to do outdoors, people are really nice, food scene has become pretty good the past ten or so years, great connection to the university.  I grew up there and spent my summers biking around town on paths, swimming in lakes, going to the pool (lots there); winters we did a lot of sledding, ice skating and x country skiing. It's pretty fun living in a place with an awesome in town arboretum where you can ski x country all winter. The schools are great too.

I felt much more pride in and connection to my community there, than I do here (and i have been here a while). It seems that practically the whole city heads downtown for Badger games even if you didn't go there for school.  Madisonians really love their town.

I'd move back in a heartbeat, but my husband wants to be close to an ocean (not that we go much here, too crowded!)[/quote]
