2 Reviews & Comments About Whitewater
Housing is one of biggest cost in whitewater, due to college every one has to pay Madison rates for rent most one bedroom apartments run 1k month
average wage seems to be minimum wage - 15$ or higher your doing way better then norm, main issue with jobs is that the town officials vote them selfs in to office, any one can run but its up to town leaders to decide who gets in, the town is some what ran like flint MI
I live near whitewater friends live in whitewater, there is no place that rents for 700 or less month, average house goes for 1,500 month
