WI
Deforest
The area that makes up the village of DeForest and town of Windsor are situated in south-central Wisconsin, approximately 10 miles north of Madison, the state's capital. It is part of the Madison Metropolitan Area and benefits from its proximity to Madison's amenities. DeForest and Windsor have a combined population of around 12,000 residents, with Deforest comprising 10,400 of those residents. The area was originally settled in the 1860s and was named after Isaac De Forest, a railroad executive. The region was closely tied to its location along the Chicago and North Western Transportation Company railroad line.
The area is known for its close-knit and friendly community. It offers a small-town atmosphere while being conveniently located near Madison, providing access to various amenities and services. It offers a range of recreational opportunities. Residents and visitors can enjoy parks, sports facilities, and outdoor activities. The Yahara River, Sunfish Pond and Token Creek County Park are nearby for those who enjoy water-based activities and nature.
The DeForest Area School District serves the students of both communities, which include three elementary schools educating students in grades K-3, an Intermediate school for 4th-6th graders, a middle school, and DeForest Area High School. The community places a strong emphasis on educating its youth and this is demonstrated through its scoring of “exceeds expectations” under the Wisconsin school district state report cards.
The area’s economy has diversified over the years, with a mix of small businesses, retail stores, and manufacturing companies, such as ABS and Evco Plastics. The proximity to Madison and other nearby cities via major roadways, including Interstate 39/90 and U.S. Route 51 provides residents with job opportunities in various sectors.
