    "Have lived downtown for 10 years. Love it. So much to do, restaurants, entertainment. The lakes. Easy access to public transportation. "
  • Nicholas Vest
    "I don’t see as many families in the new multi-level apartment buildings (the high rises). There are some families living downtown, but they might be in condos. The west and east sides outside the square and campus housing have many more families. Downtown is great for the children’s museum, farmers market, and monona terrace has live music, etc. sometimes. Outside of the square, there are nice parks for kids and families with play sets and beaches."
  • Jillian S.
    "Living downtown is great! Walking distance to almost everything and beautiful old trees and houses. "
  • Trulia User
    "College kids everywhere, and also government employees, politicians and young professionals. It’s an interesting mix that’s for sure."
  • Kilee R.
    "This is still really a big college neighborhood. Though there are more families here than elsewhere, it still gives off college vibes"

"
