ETC's home again sits near top of "Best Places to Live" list

I've lived in and around Middleton all my life (that's about 30 years as of this week, if you're curious), so it's with some deal of interest to me when the town shows up on various "Best Places to Live" lists. My personal and professional planets aligned this morning when reading coverage of Middleton's latest ranking in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, which featured ETC Test Technician Craig Burfield and his family. Cool.

It really is a great place.  But let us be clear and fair.  As in 2007, the criteria for the rating is towns with between 8,500 and 50,000 people.  

When Middleton won #1 in 2007, 8 out of 10 things in the writeup/video piece were actually about Madison, not Middleton.  The piece cited the University, the capitol, the hospital, the Madison Farmer's market, all of which are in Madison.  So I think the biggest thing that Middleton has going for it is its proximity to Madison.
