Welcome to The Heart of Wisconsin communities nestled along the Wisconsin River in picturesque central Wisconsin. This region offers a quality of life your family will love, while your business enjoys its central location, low property and infrastructure costs, educated workforce and business-friendly environment.

One Heart of Wisconsin community, Wisconsin Rapids, designated a "Dream Town" by Demographics Daily, received this distinction for its low crime rate, access to health care, low cost of living, good schools, supply of good jobs and quick commutes.  The mix of cities, villages and towns that make up the Inner Wisconsin area each offer a unique way of life.
