[quote=Anonymous]Im the Shorewood PP from above. I'm a big Wisconsin cheerleader and cringe at the word "fly-over" and think DCUMers are so snobbish when it comes to the Midwest, but I'd have reservations about Green Bay. Usually this board is way off base when describing the Midwest, but is actually rather spot-on when talking about GB. People are friendly, but hunting, football (Go Packers!)/other sports, and family are very big up there.  Most people were born and raised there. The other thing is that although there's actually a noticeable percentage of minorities (I think all four GB Public high schools are minority-majority at this point), it's not like this area where there's a large contingent of educated, affluent minorities- theres a big income gap between the whites and minorities.

I would recommend you check out Appleton. It's more liberal, more transplants, and feels more cosmopolitan than GB.  Much more interesting (and ethnic) restaurants, cooler downtown, and more "hip" with Lawrence University right there which is a liberal arts school that draws very liberal, artsy, sort of hipster students.  It's about 30 minutes from GB.

De Pere is also great- St. Norbert College is right there.

And I have to ask, what religion are you? There are Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, and Jewish (and Christian, obviously) places of worship in the Green Bay/Appleton area. [/quote]
