What it’s like
The place. Crivitz is a small village where most people know one another by sight, if not by name. Household incomes run below the county's, and a fair number of residents live on tight budgets, while a typical home is worth a moderate sum. Winters are long and cold, with deep snow, and summers are comfortably warm.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in restaurants and hotels. Across Marinette County, the largest workplaces include Waupaca Foundry, Johnson Controls and the Marinette School District. The drive to work is a long one for many, and very few people work from home.
Things to do. Lake Noquebay is a lake a short drive away, and the Little Peshtigo River, also a short drive off, offers quiet water close to town. Governor Thompson State Park, a protected area, is a longer drive away and gives more room to wander. With so much snow each year, winter outdoors is as much a part of life here as summer on the water.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Marinette County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Marinette County and the Marinette, WI-MI metro.
