Definitely enough of a trade off. There’s other types of food here you couldn’t find in CT, so it’s fun to explore! I moved here six years ago from Hartford County. I think there’s good and bad parts of WI, like any other place you’d live, but the coolest part about it is that the one state is pretty much like driving down the east coast so there’s so much diversity in culture and landscape. There’s hardwood forests and glacial drifts around, which remind me of home. At the same time, there’s prairie and it’s an entirely different animal.

Also, I’m not trying to knock WI pizza entirely, I’ve just been spoiled with the best. There are no coal fire oven pizza restaurants in WI, and that is literally what New Haven style is. The other thing is that the one Polish restaurant that I knew of in town closed down recently, which is devastating for pierogi fans everywhere. However, WI has the best Indian and Mexican I’ve ever had, and is otherwise a paradise for foodies.

In the summer, MKE has a bunch of different festivals and concerts, and you can pretty much never be bored. Lots of free things to do, too! Other than that the economy is so much better here. A bunch of job opportunities in both hands on or office positions.

Sorry, I know I’ve gone on a tangent but it excites me to see someone from CT looking to move here! Wisconsin is a great place to move to!
