Community Information

transportation diversity environment corruption affordable

Our community is growing quite a bit with all of the new housing developments, and some of the existing residents may not like the change! All in all though, we're a community close to Madison with a lot of people in the Healthcare industry. The schools were all recently renovated, so that's a big draw to live in McFarland. We're also one of the lakes that link together in the area.

There's a lot of Lutheran churches in the area, and generally welcoming. The area is predominantly white, English speaking. With the influx of newer residents, more cultural diversity is introduced. Hopefully some of the existing long term residents will embrace more of the change.

Most people are employed in Madison. Quite a few are in the Healthcare industry with area hospitals and the UW being nearby they're a lot of educators in the community as well as for Madison. The area lakes and waterways are polluted and have an overgrowth of algae, especially with a lot of phosphorus that enters into the system. The landfill only has a couple more years to function... and then what!?

There are a lot of little communities that should probably just be annexed into surrounding areas like Monona, Stoughton, McFarland, etc... that way the smaller towns, like Blooming Grove, would then be wrapped into McFarland, for example... the kids come to our schools anyways, may as well have them share the tax burden.
