What it’s like

The place. Denmark is a small village in Brown County, Wisconsin, with a younger population than many small towns have. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and household incomes run a little below the county's. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, while summers are pleasantly warm, and the year brings a fair amount of rain and melted snow.

Work. Residents work mainly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in the building trades and in shops. Among the larger workplaces in the village are the Denmark School District, Professional Fabrications, which makes ornamental and architectural metalwork, and United Cooperative, which deals in grain and animal feed. Fewer adults here hold a four-year degree than is typical, and the commute to work is a fairly short one.

Things to do. Close to home, Cherney Maribel Caves County Park is a short drive away and makes an easy outing, as does Fort La Baye, a fort that recalls the area's early history. The Neshota River, also a short drive away, suits a quiet walk along the water. For a longer day out, Lambeau Field, the stadium where Green Bay's football team plays, is a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Brown County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Brown County and the Green Bay, WI metro.
