24 Studio Apartments for Rent

Middleton is one of the most popular suburbs in the greater metropolitan area of Madison, WI, which is also the state capital. Middleton is widely regarded as one of the best places to live in the United States -- in addition to its 2007 Money magazine ranking, the city was ranked the fourth-best place to live in the US in 2009. The city itself is fairly small; according to the 2010 United States Census, Middleton had a population of just over 17,000 and occupies about 9 square miles. However, as part of the Madison metropolitan area, Middleton is surrounded by over half a million other residents.

Middleton also has the distinction of being one of the first cities in the United States (and the first in Wisconsin) to incorporate elements of New Urbanism, a city design style that utilizes lots of open and walkable neighborhoods, mass-transit, and a focus on environmentalism.

Middleton has grown significantly over the past couple of decades, and as such, several new mass transit options have been considered, including a new railroad that would connect downtown Madison, Middleton, and the University of Wisconsin campus. See more
