Madison's Economy

In Madison, the combination of the University of Wisconsin (a major employer), the U.W. Hospital System, and the university's research arm (The Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation) all serve as a strong buffer to bolster Madison's local economy. Madison has traditionally fared better than most other cities during economic downturns. In fact, due to the city's traditionally low unemployment rate and relatively strong job outlook compared to the rest of the country, Ajilon Professional Staffing rated Madison WI #1 in its early January 2009 report entitled "10 Cities For Job Growth in 2009". Click here for a list of some of the major biotech, health care and medical-device related companies that the University of Wisconsin's research arm has helped bring into the area.

Entertainment in Madison

Downtown Madison's State Street is the main thoroughfare that connects the University of Wisconsin's campus with Madison's State Capital square. State Street is lined with restaurants, cafes, shops, and bars and has a decidedly student-like atmosphere. On the other side of the Capitol Square is King Street which is growing in appeal to white-collar professionals and the high-tech population of Madison. As a result, you'll find many upscale restaurants and cafes on King Street to choose from.

On Saturday mornings you can visit the Dane County Farmers held on Madison's Capitol's Square, while each Wednesday night the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra performs free concerts on the Capitol's lawn (Concerts On The Square) while listeners picnic and relax.

Madison WI is home to the Rhythm and Booms, an enormous fireworks celebration intricately coordinated to music broadcast on the radio. Every year the program is kicked off with a fly-over performed by the local Wisconsin Air National Guard using a group of F16s fighter planes.

Madison WI has designated bike lanes throughout the city and boasts one of the most extensive bike trail systems in the country.

Madison WI is a thriving independent rock scene and boasts many local independent record labels. The city is also home to record producers, bands and musicians. Madison hosts many well-attended music festivals each year, the most popular being the Waterfront Festival, the Willy Street Fair, Atwood Summerfest, Madison Area Music Awards Show, The Orton Park Festival, Greekfest, the WORT Block Party, and the Madison Blues Festival. One of the latest additions to the festivals is the Fete de Marquette, a festival celebrating French music (with an emphasis on Cajun influences), which takes place annually on or close to Bastille Day at Madison's Central Park.

Madison WI is home to several art museums, and many wonderful architectural achievements like the Wisconsin State Capitol dome, which is closely modeled on the dome of the U.S. Capitol, and is visible throughout the Madison area.

Madison WI is also well known for being obsessed about sports, primarily because of the University students. The UW-Madison teams play all of their home-field sporting events in venues in and around Madison. The U.W.-Madison football team plays its games at Camp Randall Stadium which is able to accommodate over 80,000 people. Basketball and hockey teams play at the Kohl Center. The Madison Mallards, a college wood-bat summer baseball league team in the Northwoods League plays in Warner Park on the city's North side.
