City - Wausau

Nestled along the Wisconsin River, Wausau combines small-city charm with abundant outdoor recreation opportunities. The heart of downtown centers around the 400 Block, a community gathering space that hosts festivals and events throughout the summer. The city's rental market remains affordable, with average one-bedroom apartments renting for $941, showing a modest 2.4% increase over the past year. Two-bedroom units average $1,249, while three-bedroom homes command around $1,874.

Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate Granite Peak Ski Area, which features Wisconsin's highest vertical drop at 700 feet. The city maintains 37 parks across 337 acres, while downtown's Whitewater Park draws kayakers to its Class I-II+ rapids. Cultural attractions include the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum, home to the internationally acclaimed "Birds in Art" exhibition, and the restored Grand Theater, a performing arts venue dating to 1927.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
