Awards & Recognition

“89 species have been sighted in the six bird walks that have occurred since Evansville first became a Bird City in 2011. Wind Prairie Park's native species provide for annual bird counts. The Evansville Environmental Center is a rich resource for students and the community to support sustainability.”

Bird City Wisconsin

“The pinnacle of 'small town charm.' From its red brick Main Street to the many historic homes scattered across town, Evansville has quite a vibrant history that is sure to fascinate. At the heart of Evansville is Lake Leota Park with its meandering creek, baseball diamonds, shelters, historic markers and beautiful lake.”

Discover Wisconsin

“With its blend of affordability (median home values of $163,400 are 20% below the top 10 average), family friendliness (families with children under 18 make up 31.3% of households) and its beautifully preserved historic downtown, Evansville has all the qualities of an idyllic Midwest town.”
