I'm a realtor at Stark Company Realtors in Madison at their central office on the corner of PD and Seminole HWY. I was born and raised in the Madison area and love everything that this community offers. I enjoy the farmer's markets on Saturday mornings, taking bike rides around Lake Monona, and visiting downtown. My liberal arts education from Lawrence University helps me to relate to many different kinds of people. I am active in Madison MAGNET as one of the co-chairs on the Professional Development Committee. I am a regular attender at Blackhawk Church. Boulders Climbing Gym and Devil's Lake are fun places to do some rockclimbing. In the winter you might find me on a Snowboard at Tyrol Basin or out west in Colorado.

It depends on how much you want to spend and what you mean by "quality of life". There are many good areas and neighborhoods. The near west neighborhoods like Westmoorland and Sunset Village have nice older homes that typically sell for $200,000 to $300,000. If you like larger more prestigious areas ($500,000+), consider Blackhawk in Middleton, Bishops Bay, or Noll Valley. If you are looking for a good investment I would take a hard look at the east corridor as many of the areas are "in transition" right now with redevelopment projects. Many of the suburbs such as Waunakee, Sun Prairie, Oregon, Middleton, etc can offer a little more relaxed community, but still within 10-20 minutes of downtown. - Sun Jun 17 2007, 11:37
