Verona is a perfect mix... small-town charm, but with easy access to all the amenities of a bigger city (Madison). At the same time, go a few miles in the opposite direction and you're surrounded by beautiful, rolling countryside. Very family-friendly and safe. A real sense of community, but without being overly nosy or invasive. They've packed a lot into this town... a strong performing arts center in VACT, top-notch sports facilities (Redden soccer park, ice arena, little league fields), state and national hiking trails, etc. The schools are wonderful -- sure, not without issues that would be common in just about any school district -- but compared to most public school systems, we have very little to complain about. Some decent restaurants and other local establishments (although, a little too much fast food, bar food and pizza here). Miller's Grocery Store is an absolute gem! Just wish there was more of a thriving, walkable downtown scene.
Our family adores that Verona has a small town feel. Grocery shopping can be done here in Verona or we have Hy-Vee, Target, Costco, Pick 'n Save, Woodman's or Wal-Mart all within a convenient 5-10mile radius. Our neighborhood is safe and we have plenty of parks and scenic walking paths to enjoy! The Elementary schools could be rated a bit better, but the brand new High school is top notch! Our charter schools are nothing short of spectacular and all schools are within close proximity to one another. Verona is home to many wonder restaurants but if you're desiring something different, we are within a 10 mile radius of hundreds of fabulous restaurants, shopping mall and activities! We absolutely love Verona!
It's ok, some people are really nice and some people are not. There is alot of drugs, but not as much as neighboring cities. There are nice parts of verona and not so nice parts of verona, for example, some places seem very high class and the area is generally very clean, but there is also places with sex offenders, trash everywhere, and random condoms laying on the ground. We are usually very accepting of people of color and the LGBTQIA+ community which is nice. There's nothing special about verona. I've lived here my entire life and honestly I am very excited to go to college and explore a different city.
