HOBART, WI (WTAQ) – “Oh gosh, the word is out.”
Boring is not always a bad thing according to Hobart Village President Rich Heidel. The distinction was given to the Wisconsin community of around 8,000 by the website roadsnacks.net earlier this year.
“For the young family with kids, boring is good. For the older, retired couple and folks that just want to enjoy their life, boring is good.”
Although Hobart may be boring in the eyes of some, Hydel says they are also among the top five safest municipalities in the Badger state.
He also says there are many things that make Hobart a wonderful place to call home. Hydel notes the rolling hills, centuries old dairy farms and it’s vicinity to Green Bay. They are all key factors in Hobart’s simple country living.
According to Hydel, most people in the rural community who are commenting about the questionable honor, are chuckling about it.
And really, there are worse things than being labeled “boring.”
