2821 Boles St

Set along the Wisconsin River, 54495 (Wisconsin Rapids) offers small-city ease with four true seasons—snowy winters, warm summers, and brilliant fall color—and a strong paper-making and cranberry heritage. Recent Zillow Market Trends show the median rent in the low $1,000s, with most listings ranging from the upper hundreds to the mid-$1,300s, keeping living costs approachable. Downtown’s riverwalk, Veterans’ Memorial Park, Robinson Park, Lake Wazeecha at South Wood County Park, and Witter Field (home of the summer Rafters) anchor an outdoor lifestyle of kayaking, fishing, biking, and winter trails. You’ll find major grocers and big-box stores along 8th Street S, local cafes and supper clubs near the river, the South Wood County YMCA, and the Central Wisconsin Cultural Center and Performing Arts Center for exhibits and shows. The vibe is friendly and family- and pet-welcoming, with community staples like Lunch by the River and the Cranberry Blossom Festival, plus easy highway access via 13, 54, and 73 for commutes to Stevens Point and Marshfield.
