When you have a name as original as Waunakee, it's easy to list yourself as the only "Waunakee in the world." In fact, that's exactly what this village near Madison, Wisconsin uses as a catch phrase! While there might only be one Waunakee, the city offers plenty of parks and picturesque scenes that you'll only get in this Midwestern state. Plus, Waunakee is right next to Madison and just a hop, skip and a jump away from Milwaukee to the south or Green Bay to the north.
Waunakee represents the type of village where life happens at a slower pace, people feel comfortable raising a family and everyone knows your name. Speaking of names, Waunakee joins many cities and towns in Wisconsin that derive from Native American words. Waunakee itself means "peaceful one," and there couldn't be a better word for a town that has barely over 12,000 residents (2010 U.S. Census stats). What the village lacks in modern amenities it more than makes up for with almost a dozen parks in just a few miles, a fishery and all the winter sports that you could ask for. View Waunakee City Guide
