Map of Wisconsin Cities - Wisconsin Road Map
Wisconsin (Listeni/wɪsˈkɒ̃nsɪn/) is a
U.S. state located in the north-central United States, in the Midwest and Great
Lakes regions. It is bordered by Minnesota to the west, Iowa to the southwest,
Illinois to the south, Lake Michigan to the east, Michigan to the northeast,
and Lake Superior to the north. Wisconsin is the 23rd largest state by total
area and the 20th most populous. The state capital is Madison, and its largest
city is Milwaukee, which is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan. The
state is divided into 72 counties.
Wisconsin's geography is diverse, with
the Northern Highland and Western Upland along with a part of the Central Plain
occupying the western part of the state and lowlands stretching to the shore of
Lake Michigan. Wisconsin is second to Michigan in the length of its Great Lakes
coastline.
Wisconsin is known as "America's
Dairyland" because it is one of the nation's leading dairy producers,
particularly famous for cheese. Manufacturing, especially paper products, information
technology (IT), and tourism are also major contributors to the state's
economy.
