What it’s like
The place. Bonduel is a village in Shawano County, with a small-town population and a majority of homes lived in by their owners. Household incomes run a little below the county's, and a typical home is valued well above what the town's incomes might suggest. Winters are long and cold, with January the coldest month and a good deal of snow, while summers turn warm in July and the year brings a fair amount of rain and melted snow.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in professional and business services. The biggest employers in town include Krueger International's Bonduel plant, which makes office furniture, the Bonduel School District, and World Wide Sign Systems, a sign maker. Unemployment in Shawano County is a little higher than a year ago, and most people travel a fair way to work, with only a few working from home.
Things to do. The Pensaukee River runs in or beside town, and Shawano Lake and the Shioc River are each a short drive away. For a day out, Lambeau Field, the stadium, and the National Railroad Museum are both a longer drive away.
