What it’s like
The place. Neosho is a small village in Dodge County, Wisconsin, with a population small enough that neighbors are likely to know one another. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and the typical home value is high for a place this size. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are pleasantly warm, with July the warmest.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in the building trades. Across Dodge County, some of the largest workplaces are John Deere Horicon Works, QuadGraphics and Watertown Regional Medical Center. The commute is a fairly long one, and very few people work from home.
Things to do. A short drive away, Druid Lake is a reservoir and the Ashippun River offers a quiet stretch of water. The John Hustis House, also a short drive off, is a museum. For a longer outing, Horicon Marsh is a lake and wetland area, and Kettle Moraine State Forest is a large protected area for walking and being outdoors.

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