Eighteen communities along the Fox River make up the area known as the Fox Cities, one of Wisconsin’s fastest-growing metropolitan areas. The heart of Wisconsin’s Fox Cities is Appleton, a community of more than 70,000 people widely renowned for its quality of life. A bustling economy, low crime rate and bountiful recreational opportunities make Appleton and inviting place to live, work and play.
In the Fox Cities, there’s no shortage of “things to do”. We’re known as Wisconsin’s Shopping Place, where you can enjoy the largest concentration of “Hot 100” retailers in the state, as well as bustling downtown shopping centers and renowned antique dealers. But if shopping isn’t for you, there are a number of options including museums, nature centers, performing arts as well as a number of indoor and outdoor recreations opportunities. In addition, we’re home to the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, the single A affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers.
