Many folks ask, “Where is a good place to live that is out of the city but still close enough to have an easy commute?”
Well, how about Oregon Wisconsin? Oregon WI homes are only 11 miles south of the Madison city center which translates to a roughly 20-minute commute. Oregon is center south so you would have equal access to East and West Madison employers and at the end of the day… you get to come home to Oregon.
Homes in all Price Ranges
Oregon WI real estate is available in prices ranging from under $200,000, to well over that mark if you are interested in a luxury home in an area like Autumn Woods or the Legend at Bergamont. Here you will find incredible homes that rival Madison’s finest deluxe residences, but throughout Oregon, you will find a great selection of more modestly priced homes that make up the bulk of the inventory.
Subdivisions like Hawthorn Estates offers listings in the mid twos to the low threes and areas like Rustic Vineyards have homes with median sold prices below $250,000. And, Oregon has a great selection under $200K in areas like Long View and Meadow Crest. So what ever your budget, you are bound to find a great selection of homes in Oregon WI.
Good Schools as Well!
There is sometimes a fear that schools outside of the Madison area will be less equipped to provide a good education to kids. But actually, often the converse is true. Oregon in fact has a very successful school system that is well regarded by the state as well as teachers, parents and kids as well. Rated 8 out of 10 by GreatSchools.com is evidence of this satisfaction.
