Moved here last year. Best decision! It's like living in Mayberry and a Hallmark Movie rolled into one. My children love the schools. I love the shopping. Quiet and safe. No political signs everywhere. People mind their own business and say, 'Hi!" Very dog-friendly. I lived on the Northshore for 20 years. No comparison to the charm Cedarburg has.
If you are white, Christian, upper middle class, straight and happy to look the other way re: bullying, harassment, discrimination, etc, Cedarburg might be a perfect fit for you. Yes, it is a very cute, Norman Rockwell-esque setting, but it’s more Stepford Wives in reality. Very clique-y and status driven- except everyone wants the same things as everyone else, just “better.” If you don’t fit, expect to be ignored/excluded- if you have kids and they attend the schools, expect worse and know that their struggles will be ignored by staff and leadership.
The pretty picture painted of this community goes no deeper than the surface and that is exactly how folks like it here. Sure, the shops and restaurants and festivals are nice for an occasional visit, but know that the veneer will wear quickly after you spend enough time in this picture perfect town.

I have been blessed to live in such a wonderful town for the majority of my life. I moved to Cedarburg when I was 8 years old and I am now 17 years old and planning my college pathway. It will be very hard to leave and make a new home somewhere else when Cedarburg feels like the only home I could ever have. The small, unique shops and restaurants in downtown Cedarburg are what make the town so warm and inviting. It is also a very safe town, which is a quality I really appreciate. I've always enjoyed seeing the sidewalks filled with visitors coming to shop and walk around "Historic Downtown Cedarburg". Cedarburg is an attraction site for visitors, but town citizens of all different ages like to spend time walking through downtown Cedarburg as well. I have always enjoyed exploring the town with friends and family. I also like the combination of vintage shops and contemporary stores and restaurants as well. Cedarburg is a place for everyone to come and explore and feel safe and welcome.
