There are so many neat and interesting things we don't know about unless we are told or we research about them ourselves.

Here are some interesting facts about Wisconsin, my hometown. Some of them, I was aware of, others I am quite surprised to learn myself. I hope you will enjoy reading about my home state.

Wisconsin was admitted as a state in 1848. It was the 30th state to be admitted to the USA. The capital city of Wisconsin is Madison (population of about 670,000), but the biggest city is Milwaukee (population of about 550,000).

Wisconsin is home to a large number of deer, at least 1.5 million of them. It is said that we are home to over 600,000 hunters. Wow! That's a lot of people!

A county in Wisconsin called Marathon, grows all of the nation's supply of Ginseng, a medicinal herb, which accounts for 10% of the world's supply.

Wisconsin has about 15,000 lakes which is actually more lakes than Minnesota (the neighboring state). There are many more things to say, but I will stop here. I hope you enjoyed reading about my homestate.
