Community Information

Goodman Community Center is a vital member of our community which serves all ages and especially those facing economic hardship. It is the most racially diverse institution in our neighborhood. Pinney and Hawthorne libraries are very important as well. We have a thriving commercial corridor on Atwood Avenue.

My close community is quite gentrified and white. The closer one gets to Lake Monona, there are fewer rental units and larger more expensive housing. Our immediate neighborhood has house values that are increasingly pricing all but the well-to-do out. I'd say that my immediate community is progressive politically. More and more wealthy families with young children are moving in.

We are located near Lake Monona. I believe people are mostly employed in the city of Madison. Our community's run off goes directly into the lake resulting in high levels of weeds and bad smells in the summer. We are home to Kipp Industries which emits air pollution.

Our community needs a population reflecting the diversity of our city. We could easily be divided into an all-white, high economic class neighborhood that could be pitted against other communities in Madison.
