What it’s like
The place. Withee is a small village in Taylor County, Wisconsin, home to only a small number of people, so daily life here is quiet and neighbors tend to know one another. Homes cost less than in much of the country, and household incomes across the county sit below the national middle. Winters are long and cold, with a lot of snow, while summers are pleasantly warm, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in the building trades. Few work from home, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Across Taylor County, the largest workplaces include Marathon Cheese, the Medford Area Public School District and Aspirus Medford Hospital and Clinics. Joblessness in the county is low, though the number of jobs there dipped slightly last year.
Things to do. The country around Withee suits people who like water and open land, though everything listed here is a longer drive away. The Black River is the best known of the nearby waters, and South Twin Lake is a lake for fishing or a quiet afternoon on the shore. For a walk among wetland plants and birds, Twin Lakes Bog State Natural Area is a protected area, also 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 Taylor County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very 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 Taylor County.
