Survey: Waukesha Is Wisconsin’s Most Livable City

A survey says Waukesha is the most livable city in Wisconsin, and the 36th most livable in the U-S. That’s according to the New York financial website 24/Seven Wall Street, which put out a ranking of 50 communities. It says the Milwaukee suburb has higher numbers of fitness centers, movie theaters, restaurants, and taverns than the national average — with only one third of the crime of similar sized communities, and a lower than average poverty rate. Appleton is the 48th most livable city in the survey, as twice as many residents walk to work than the national average — and the city has seven colleges and universities for every 100-thousand residents. The survey rated Carmel, Indiana as the most livable in America with Centennial, Colorado second.
