I think the City of Madison and I are a pretty good fit. It has a low-key pace and sense of community that I really enjoy. Madison's laid back, liberal, outdoor-minded, slightly self-involved and soaked in booze. Just like me. However, when evaluating my place here I always run into a "chicken or the egg" question: was I pre-disposed to like Madison before I moved here or has my residence here for the last six years affected me in such a way that I'm comfortable in this midwestern town? Either way, it's worth a visit.
