B’gosh, there’s a lot happening in Oshkosh. The city on the western shore of Lake Winnebago banked by the Fox River and Lake Butte des Morts is a leading city for Fortune 500 companies, such as Oshkosh Corporation, which makes specialty vehicles for farming, the U.S. military, and fire departments. This along with making our Top 100 for Household Income (#92, median of $48,346) Oshkosh ranked #5 in our Prosperity category. It also made the top 100 for Place (#99) with low crime rate (#41) and pleasant climate (#92). A major development is in the works for its Sawdust District, which will see the former industrial corridor transformed into a residential, retail, and entertainment district.
