This. Thanks ScarletG. I don't know why the others are so bent on proving I'm a liar.

And Again cheese plate, I live in Middleton, which is right next to Madison. Yeah, I know a bit of far west side Madison pretty well but I don't know east side, or south side at all. I've been downtown a couple of times (like once or twice) but I don't know the demographics that well. THATS WHY I ASKED IS MADISON WHITE MOSTLY OVERALL. as in the whole city.

You can pay $2 & take the 70 or the 15 bus from Middleton to downtown. Buses run pretty tight on schedule in Madison. Middleton isn't really that different from Madison racially. Sure, the direct university area will be more diverse, but most people in Madison have cars so what you see in West Madison/Middleton won't be significantly different than what you see downtown. Heck, take the bus to some restaurants or shopping on University Ave in Madison, & you'll have the general idea. It's not like Milwaukee, where you cross over certain borders & it's drastically different.

A short term work assignment is one thing. A teen living there is another story all together. Please.

Yeah, I'd been on State St a good half dozen times before I lived within a couple hours of the place. Went there in high school, college, etc. I think that's pretty common for people in the state. It's absolutely unheard of for an actual resident of the Madison burbs to have never been in Madison, though.

What is wrong with you? You seriously have nothing better to do. I wouldn't be surprised if you made that account, made the post, and then tried to make it look like it was me. More then likely, it is just another regular user making a post.

Hopefully a moderator that is following this can check my IP address or something with Jena and post/prove we're not the same user to shut up this cheeseplate once and for all.
