We are considering a move from the CA Central Coast to one of Madison's suburbs. From what we can tell from our online research, Middleton looks like a good bet in terms of housing costs, schools, and proximity to Madison. Would love to hear what people like/don't like about living in the area, and what other suburbs are worth considering? We've got 3 young children and a couple of big dogs. Are looking for something 2,000+ square feet for $350,000 or less. Thanks!

middleton has really become suburbia - it used to be a quiet little suburb but in the last 10 years or so there's been a ton of development and now there's a massive selection of chain type restaurants and shopping.

it all depends on what you want. the schools are some of the best around, it's very safe and you don't have to go far to get to quiet rural country. big range in home prices from modest to very expensive.

i think it would be a great choice. i lived in west madison but worked in middleton about 10 years ago. back then there was a culvers and a couple of fast food restaurants around, but now there's a whole shopping center with dozens and dozens of good restaurants.

it's been ranked top ten in money magazine's places to live for several years running.
