Why Do People Live Here?

Nakoma League was platted as a self-contained suburb on Madison’s near west side in the early 1900s., and developers aimed for quality at every turn. Ample land was set aside for parks, tennis courts and a golf course. A new middle school was built, and the streets were designed to wind through the neighborhood like the tree-lined rural roads found elsewhere in southeast Wisconsin. In its early years, Nakoma League even boasted its own private bus system and an exclusive water supply. The Nakoma League’s neighborhood association, which began as a women’s club, has organized community activities and charitable endeavors throughout the decades to ensure that the community never strayed from its guiding principles: “to promote neighborliness and friendliness among its members and to contribute to the welfare of the community.” Nakoma League has been regarded as one of Madison’s most prestigious neighborhoods for more than a century.
