A Local's Perspective

Life in Verona.

Verona was incorporated as a village in 1921 and became a city in 1978. Its downtown along Main Street is still the center of town, with newer neighborhoods spreading out to the north, south and west.

US-18/151 (Verona Road) connects the city to Madison's Beltline, and the Military Ridge State Trail runs west toward Mount Horeb and the Driftless Area. Badger Prairie County Park lies on the city's north side, and the Sugar River and Badger Mill Creek pass through the area.
