What it's Like to Live in Multisite, Beloit, WI: 

The Stateline area is a great place to live and work. It’s right in the middle of a bunch of metro areas, so if you’re into the city life, Madison, Milwaukee, and Chicago are all close by and have all the events, concerts, and restaurants you could want. At the same time, Beloit is a really cool town with fun places and restaurants of its own and lots of access to outdoor activities and a slower pace of life. We're a regional church, so you're able to pick from different kinds of communities to live in from vibrantly diverse areas to suburban cities to small towns.
