What it’s like
The place. Shiocton is a small village in Outagamie County where most homes are lived in by their owners, a larger share than is typical across the country. Household incomes run well below the county's, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month and highs staying below freezing, while July brings warm days, and rain and melted snow add up to a moderate amount over the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in professional and business services. Across Outagamie County, some of the largest workplaces are the Appleton Area School District, Fox Valley Technical College and Gulfstream Aerospace. The typical commute is a little longer than a short hop across town, and a small share of people work from home.
Things to do. The Embarrass River is a short drive away, and Hortonville Community Hall, a theatre, is also close by. For a longer outing, Lambeau Field, the stadium in Green Bay, is one of the best known places in the region, and High Cliff State Park is a protected area 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 Outagamie 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 Outagamie County and the Appleton, WI metro.
