Farms and woodland; bucolic country lanes and classically American towns. Fine libraries, parks and schools and cute shops along Main Street. An attractive community for those who start, and grow, their businesses. Well planned, not ostentatious, and respectful and honoring of traditional conceptions of community in America. Not so much Republican, I have found, as oriented toward a «conservative balance-sheet» mindset. While that characteristic is often mistaken with cheapness, frugality is a guarantee of stability in tough times. More importantly, when times are good, growth is closely scrutinized, developments planned with regard to sustainability. Again, all a very traditional American mindset of moderation, community and economic activity. I have to say, I used to find Ozaukee County exclusionary and intolerant. While I think there may have been something to that, I now also appreciate that this careful, conservative management has served Ozaukee County so well throughout the last two centuries.
