What it’s like

The place. Necedah is a small village in Juneau County, in central Wisconsin. Residents tend to be older than the typical American, and most homes are lived in by their owners. Household incomes run below the county's, and more people live below the poverty line than in many places. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, while July brings warm days, and rain and melted snow add up to a fair amount through the year.

Work. Residents work mainly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in wholesale. Across Juneau County, the largest workplaces include Mile Bluff Medical Center, Wabash New Lisbon and the Mauston School District. Few adults here hold a four-year degree, a typical commute is fairly long, and only a small number of people work from home.

Things to do. Castle Rock Lake, a lake, and Buckhorn State Park, a protected area, are both a short drive away, as is the Necedah National Wildlife Refuge. For something further afield, the Roche-a-Cri Petroglyphs, an archaeological site, are a longer drive away. The Yellow River, also a short drive off, offers another stretch of water to visit.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Juneau 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 Juneau County.
